## What it is
A modern Cookiecutter template for scaffolding Python projects that use uv for dependency management. It generates a project preconfigured with CI/CD, linting, type checking, testing, documentation, containerization, and PyPI publishing tooling.

## Use cases
- scaffold a new python package with uv
- python project template with github actions ci
- bootstrap a pypi-publishable python library
- cookiecutter template with ruff mypy pytest preconfigured
- start a python project with docker and devcontainer setup
- generate a python repo with mkdocs documentation

## When to choose
- starting a new Python library or package from scratch
- you want uv-based dependency management with modern tooling like ruff and ty
- you need CI/CD, testing, docs, and publishing wired up out of the box

## When to avoid
- adding a template to an existing codebase
- you prefer pip, poetry, or pdm over uv
- you need a template for non-Python languages

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, build-tool, ci-cd, testing, documentation, package-manager
- domain: developer-tools
- platform: python, cli, cross-platform
- tags: cookiecutter, uv, project-template, scaffolding, pypi-publishing, pre-commit, ruff, mypy, tox-uv, devcontainers, boilerplate, python, automation, devops, docker
