A framework for launching new Django projects quickly. Comes with a custom user model, email/password authentication, options for social authentication via Google/Facebook/Twitter/etc, and static assets.
NOTE: This open source project is supported by my three published books: Django for Beginners, Django for APIs, and Django for Professionals.
- For Django 2.2 and Python 3.7
- Modern virtual environments with pipenv
- Styling with Bootstrap v4.1.3
