I was bored, Sunday evening. I decided to make this auto-updating twitter banner using python (I've already done it.)
But you see, I'm lazy. Really lazy. I didn't even want to make the main.py file and get straight to the coding.
If you have to do the same thing more than 5 times, automate it.
And that's what I ended up doing. as I'm learning Rust, this could also be a nice Rust project that helps me with my everyday small projects.
Here's what create-python-program does:
- Initialises virtual environment
- Makes source directory and main.py file
- Makes README.md, .gitignore
- Initialises git repository
- Makes requirements.txt file
- Creates .env file
It's cross platform too!
Installation and Usage
The project is available at crates.io, and you can install it easily by this command:
cargo install create-python-project
Usage:
create-python-project
And yes, that's it!
Let me know what you think in the comments below! I know this project isn't THAT useful but as long as it saves one second of my time, it's worth it lol

A link to git repo would have been nice.

Nice implementation. Any plans to modularize it, so that it can be extended to support more templates, something like cookiecutter.
I used to use cookiecutter but then implemented my own bash scripts. Rust alternative to cookiecutter sound intriguing.
That's actually an amazing idea. What should I name it 👀
Hi there! A basic implementation has been done here : github.com/Dhravya/Cakecutter not sure what else to add though haha
It's so cool!
thanks!
