Overview

  • jyinit is a fast Python project initializer for creating consistent, ready-to-ship project structures from curated templates. It streamlines bootstrapping with sensible defaults, optional CI, license setup, git repository initialization, and interactive flows so you can start coding immediately.

Key features

  • Multiple templates: Flask, FastAPI, Django, Streamlit, ML, libraries, etc.
  • Interactive mode --interactive: prompts for missing options.
  • Per-template GitHub Actions workflows (--ci).
  • Licenses included (MIT, Apache-2.0, GPL-3.0, …).
  • Git integration:
  • --git → initializes git repo(s).
  • --gitrep [url] → initializes repo(s) + sets a remote & pushes commit.
  • Tests scaffold: adds a tests/ folder with __init__.py.
  • Virtual environments (--venv) per subproject.
  • Dry-run mode: preview without creating files
