🚀 Quick Start

1. Browse the boilerplates above to find what you need
2. Copy the template to your project directory
3. Customize the configuration files and variables
4. Install dependencies and start developing!

Example: Starting a Flask Project

# Copy the Flask boilerplate
cp -r python/flask/* my-flask-app/
cd my-flask-app

# Set up environment
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # or `venv\Scripts\activate` on Windows

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Configure environment
cp .env.example .env

# Run the application
flask run
