Cookiecutter Django is a framework for jumpstarting production-ready Django projects quickly.
A transparent discovery signal based on current public GitHub metadata.
This score does not audit code, security, maintainers, documentation quality, or suitability. Verify the repository and its current documentation before adoption.
Powered by Cookiecutter, Cookiecutter Django is a framework for jumpstarting production-ready Django projects quickly.
These features can be enabled during initial project setup.
This project is an open source project run by volunteers. You can sponsor us via OpenCollective or individually via GitHub Sponsors:
Projects that provide financial support to the maintainers:
Two Scoops of Django 3.x is the best ice cream-themed Django reference in the universe!
PyUp brings you automated security and dependency updates used by Google and other organizations. Free for open source projects!
Let's pretend you want to create a Django project called "redditclone". Rather than using startproject
and then editing the results to include your name, email, and various configuration issues that always get forgotten until the worst possible moment, get cookiecutter to do all the work.
First, get Cookiecutter. Trust me, it's awesome:
pip install "cookiecutter>=1.7.0"
Now run it against this repo:
cookiecutter https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter-django
You'll be prompted for some values. Provide them, then a Django project will be created for you.
Warning: After this point, change 'Daniel Greenfeld', 'pydanny', etc to your own information.
Answer the prompts with your own desired options. For example:

ls
Create a git repo and push it there:
git init
git add .
git commit -m "first awesome commit"
git remote add origin git@github.com:pydanny/redditclone.git
git push -u origin main
Now take a look at your repo. Don't forget to carefully look at the generated README. Awesome, right?
For local development, see the following:
You may notice that some elements of this project do not exactly match what we describe in chapter 3. The reason for that is this project, amongst other things, serves as a test bed for trying out new ideas and concepts. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, but the end result is that it won't necessarily match precisely what is described in the book I co-authored.
If you are using PyUp to keep your dependencies updated and secure, use the code cookiecutter during checkout to get 15% off every month.
Scattered throughout the Python and HTML of this project are places marked with "your stuff". This is where third-party libraries are to be integrated with your project.
To get full MySQL support in addition to the default Postgresql, you can use this fork of the cookiecutter-django: https://github.com/mabdullahadeel/cookiecutter-django-mysql
Need a stable release? You can find them at https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter-django/releases
This is what I want. It might not be what you want. Don't worry, you have options:
If you have differences in your preferred setup, I encourage you to fork this to create your own version. Once you have your fork working, let me know and I'll add it to a 'Similar Cookiecutter Templates' list here. It's up to you whether to rename your fork.
If you do rename your fork, I encourage you to submit it to the following places:
We accept pull requests if they're small, atomic, and make our own project development experience better.
