An utterly fantastic project starter template for Django 2.0.

• Production-ready configuration for Static Files, Database Settings, Gunicorn, etc.
• Enhancements to Django's static file serving functionality via WhiteNoise.
• Latest Python 3.6 runtime environment.

To use this project, follow these steps:

1. Create your working environment.
2. Install Django ($ pipenv install django)
3. Create a new project using this template

Using this template to create a new Django app is easy::

$ django-admin.py startproject --template=https://github.com/heroku/heroku-django-template/archive/master.zip --name=Procfile helloworld

You can replacehelloworld with your desired project name.

$ git init$ git add -A$ git commit -m "Initial commit"$ heroku create$ git push heroku master$ heroku run python manage.py migrate
