A Cookiecutter template that scaffolds a modern Python package with best-practice tooling: Poetry, Nox, pre-commit, Flake8, GitHub Actions CI, and Sphinx documentation. It is based on the Hypermodern Python article series and automates PyPI publishing.

Use cases

• scaffold a new python package with modern tooling
• set up poetry and nox for a python project
• bootstrap a python library with ci and docs
• python project template with pre-commit and flake8
• start an open source python package ready for pypi

When to choose

• starting a new Python package and wanting batteries-included tooling
• you want Poetry, Nox, pre-commit, and GitHub Actions wired up from day one
• you want Sphinx docs and automated PyPI publishing configured out of the box

When to avoid

• you use pip/setuptools or uv instead of Poetry
• you need a template for applications or services rather than installable packages
• you want a minimal scaffold without opinionated tooling
