Usage
------
Let's pretend you want to create a Django project called "redditclone". Rather than using `startproject`
and then editing the results to include your name, email, and various configuration issues that always get forgotten until the worst possible moment, get cookiecutter_ to do all the work.
First, get Cookiecutter. Trust me, it's awesome::
$ pip install cookiecutter
Now run it against this repo::
$ cookiecutter https://github.com/pydanny/cookiecutter-django
You'll be prompted for some values. Provide them, then a Django project will be created for you.
**Warning**: After this point, change 'Daniel Greenfeld', 'pydanny', etc to your own information.
**Warning**: repo_name must be a valid Python module name or you will have issues on imports.
Answer the prompts with your own desired options_. For example::

Choose from 1, 2, 3 [1]: 1
Enter the project and take a look around::
$ cd reddit/
$ ls
Create a git repo and push it there::
$ git init
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "first awesome commit"
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:pydanny/redditclone.git
$ git push -u origin master
Now take a look at your repo. Don't forget to carefully look at the generated README. Awesome, right?

For Readers of Two Scoops of Django 1.8
--------------------------------------------
You may notice that some elements of this project do not exactly match what we describe in chapter 3. The reason for that is this project, amongst other things, serves as a test bed for trying out new ideas and concepts. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, but the end result is that it won't necessarily match precisely what is described in the book I co-authored.
"Your Stuff"
-------------
Scattered throughout the Python and HTML of this project are places marked with "your stuff". This is where third-party libraries are to be integrated with your project.
