python-project-setup

Python project setup automates scaffolding with uv, src layout, PEP8 standards, and pyproject.toml configuration. Claude guides you through project type selection and dependency choices, generating a complete, production-ready structure in one step.

uv is an ultra-fast Python package manager and virtual environment orchestrator that replaces traditional tools like pip and venv. It accelerates dependency resolution, environment creation, and editable installation while maintaining consistency across projects.

Yes. Project setup handles CLI, TUI, and pure library scaffolding with intelligent defaults. It configures appropriate tooling—click or rich for CLIs—automatically generates entry points, and applies src layout conventions tailored to your application type.

Apply project setup to your existing directory. It generates an updated pyproject.toml, configures tools like ruff and mypy, enforces src layout and PEP8 standards, and sets up uv-based virtual environment management without requiring manual rewrites.

Setup configures uv for environment and dependency management, generates pyproject.toml with metadata and dependencies, optionally integrates ruff for linting, mypy for type checking, and pytest for testing. All tools follow PEP8 and modern Python conventions.

Project setup generates a complete, functional pyproject.toml with your project metadata, dependencies, and tool configurations. You can extend it for additional requirements, but the initial setup requires no manual edits to begin development.
