Prototype is a quick-start dockerized template for setting up a Django project with OpenAI integration in seconds. Prototype allows you to create complex projects in a single prompt. Prototype is free and opensource – clone it and use with ease.
Greetings, Hunters.
@Prototype is a project kickstarter, integrated with Docker and the OpenAI API out of the box. Essentially, Prototype is the approach I’ve used to develop personal and commercial projects for the past two years. When combined with proper tooling like @snap2txt and @Cursor (or any other AI tool available to you), it allows you to develop powerful containerized applications in just minutes. Check out my report on developing with Prototype on my dev.to blog.
Over the past two years, I’ve refined this approach into an online quickstart for projects I build, and today I’m happy to share it with you. Prototype is free and open-source – just make sure you have Docker installed and kickstart your next project by cloning the repo.
If you like Prototype and have thoughts on how to improve it, feel free to contribute – PRs are welcome.
Cheers!
I like open-source products. What type of projects I can build with Prototype?
Super efficient text-to-app tool! Could be a real Cursor challenger 👀 Loving how it streamlines Django + OpenAI setup!
I recommend this app to all developers who want to quickly launch a Django project with OpenAI integration. Prototype is a user-friendly and free open-source template that allows you to deploy complex projects in just one request.
Congrats on the launch. Wondering is it pluggable to use any OpenAI API compatible AI models?
Awesome! Checked out your codebase, as I used to do Django stuff back in the day. Definitely needed for NextJS TS framework as well. Great stuff !
Great to see Prototype launching! A one-stop solution for quickly kickstarting projects with Django and OpenAI integration is a game-changer for developers. Excited to check it out—looking forward to seeing how it accelerates project setups. Best of luck, Sergei!
Finally, a way to kickstart projects without spending half the day troubleshooting dependencies.
Thanks for your endeavour on open-source project! I will try it out on my side projects.
Awesome Sergei! Prototype looks amazing and I’m truly sure many founders will take the most of it. All the best on this launch
Love the open-source spirit behind it. Prototype seems like a fantastic way to streamline containerized app development. Integrating Docker and the OpenAI API right out of the box is a clever move.
Congrats on the launch!
Best wishes and sending wins to the team :) @vorniches
This will be really helpful for people using Django. Wish you good luck with the launch! 🎉
This is a really interesting approach to project setup! The single-prompt setup and Dockerization seem like huge time-savers, especially for rapid prototyping. Congrats on the launch!
