Features

Django base project structure: The template generates a default Django project structure, saving time and effort in setting up the initial project layout.
CI/CD integration with Github actions: Github actions are already configured in the project, allowing for smooth deployment to the production server with each new commit pushed to the master branch.
Docker support: The template provides a production-ready Docker environment and a local development environment, enabling developers to easily add new features to the project.
Docker environment files: The template generates environment files that contain sensitive data, ensuring that they are not stored in the project repository to prevent password leaks.
HTTPS out of the box: The template wizard requires the use of the real production domain, which is used to generate certificates for the production domain automatically. The certificates are also automatically renewed.
Monitoring: The template offers integration with Sentry for error monitoring. Developers have the ability to edit the Sentry DSN to connect their project with their Sentry account.
Metrics: If selected in the wizard, the template adds Grafana and Prometheus to the project, automatically configuring the datasource and providing a basic metrics dashboard for the Django application.
