Cookiecutter-Modern

• A modern, but simple cookiecutter python template
• Code first, configuration later

How to run this:

If you have uv installed already just run:

uvx cookiecutter git@github.com:rzlim08/cookiecutter-modern.git

Otherwise try:

pip install -U cookiecutter 

or

brew install cookiecutter # for macos

cookiecutter git@github.com:rzlim08/cookiecutter-modern.git

A cookiecutter template heavily influenced by:

https://github.com/audreyfeldroy/cookiecutter-pypackage

• Simpler and more opinionated than the above package

• Commits to a more modern structure. I found it confusing that the above package contains requirements-dev.txt, pyproject.toml, setup.py etc. It makes it difficult to know which files to change to make configurations.

• No doc building (yet). I might add this in later, but I find that this just confuses things.

• The goal is to simply be able to use the cookiecutter command, install the package, and be able to run package-name. This way the first thing that coders need to worry about is coding.

• coverage
• pytest
• mypy
• ruff
• Makefile - for workflow coordination
• pyproject.toml - for all python packaging/distribution configuration
