Introduction

A very basic Cookiecutter template to start off a Django projects with MithrilJS for the front-end.

Installation

Start the scaffholding.

cookiecutter https://github.com/poudel/cookiecutter-drf-mithril

Change to the newly created directory when done and run the following command to install python dependencies.

pipenv install

Now install the front-end stuff. I recommend NVM for extra protection.

yarn install

Done! Now run ./manage.py runserver and yarn start.

Comes with

• No hot reloading or anything much fancy for the front-end.
• Comes with axios (to make API requests) as a dependency.
• Babel for ES6, node-sass powered loader for SASS, basic webpack config for development.
• A base UI component, powered by ludbek/mithril-componentx and ludbek/validatex.
• Uses the newly recommended Pipfile for python dependencies.
