Yelp's Tron is awesome, but I wanted an JSON over HTTP API and ISO 8601 Duration Notation. Plus there are a few over problems with it that I currently don't remember.
If you have any feature requests, please create an issue in github. The more people request something the sooner it will get implemented.
Thanks for the feedback though.
^ is in the works
Did you look at the actual main aspect of this simple tool, or just the one folder with the server-script? As previously mentioned. The main aspect of this is the automatic _Django Project Builder_, not "a collection of fragile scripts to get basic stuff done".
The core aspect of this is the Django defaults and the front-end stuff. The server scripts are in a separate folder for a reason.
Another thing which is kind of hidden is the ptm1.4 branch. This is a branch that includes a lot more, and will be growing quickly. We wanted the master branch to be generic as possible, and have it so people can easily switch out our defaults for their own, i.e. changing any of the files in django-files/ for their specific needs.
In regards to supporting other 'preferred practices', we welcome people to fork this repo and contribute stuff back. The master branch will be staying more generic, but we are all for best practices no matter if they are the "Django way".
