Or just have a skeleton/boilerplate code in a repo and clone it for each new project. Here's mine http://github.com/senko/dj-skeletor (feat. south, debug toolbar, raven/sentry, fabric).

Have any Flask projects in the wild for us to see? The "Powered by Flask" section in the Flask docs is full of quick toy projects.

#15The quality of this leaves a lot to be desired* and you would be better off with using a 1.4 project from somewhere like https://github.com/xenith/django-base-template . *Hardcoded ubuntu user and hardcoded py26 and py26 paths in different files: https://github.com/prototypemagic/django-projectbuilder/blob... https://github.com/prototypemagic/django-projectbuilder/blob...
Release early, release often :-). We decided to launch this as soon as we thought other people could benefit from it. That day is today.
As stated in the docs, the server-side auto-deploy code assumes you're running Ubuntu. Removing such assumptions is a high priority (see TODO.md).
That said, the whole "start a new pre-configured Django project with lots of stuff pre-configured" thing is ready now and only assumes you're on a Unixy OS.

#19I’m really sorry to get all critical, but if you personally have to SSH into the server to do setup or deployment—especially if you have to be root—you’re doing it wrong.
I also feel that if anyone or anything has to SSH into a server for deployment, it could be done better. I use Chef to automate all of this stuff; it's surprising that we have great tools like Chef, Puppet and CFEngine and people still feel the need to write custom collections of fragile scripts to get basic stuff done.
