How to start a Django project in less than a minute!

Fortunately Django makes life very easy in developing web applications: a ready admin, a complete framework and many features and libraries that allow you to develop projects quickly and correctly.

But years of errors on many web-developed projects allowed me to combine many best practices for the development and management of a Django project, automating my processes.

Ansible, uWSGI, Jenkins and obviously Django are the tools that will allow us to start a new project in less than a minute.

In this talk we will see how to set up a project from scratch that includes automation for the deployment, passing through a continuous integration system, using the most widespread tools in the open source world. All this in very few steps.
