The project is meant to be easily clonable, and used as the starter template for
|
||||
the next big thing our team develops.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting Started
|
||||
1. Clone the repo from GitHub/BitBucket
|
||||
1. Delete the `.git` folder
|
||||
1. Remove/add anything as you see fit
|
||||
1. Initialize as a new git repository for your own project
|
||||
1. DONE.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating an App
|
||||
1. Create a folder with the app name in `apps`. For example: `poll`
|
||||
1. Run `python manage.py startapp poll apps/poll` from the root directory of the project
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Scope
|
||||
Develop a structure for both `django-rest-framework` and `django` projects.
|
||||
Easily clonable when starting new projects
|
||||
Folder structure only, not “best practices”
|
||||
No questions, instead we’ll have everything raised as an issue in a repository
|
||||
We won’t be talking about best practices in implementation details
|
||||
We’ll hold all questions in a GitHub repository, so things can move forward
|
||||
The discussions also serve historic significance - people can backtrack why some
|
||||
decisions were made.
