Fast to start. Clean by design. Built to scale.
QuickStart is a lightweight, no-friction Python foundation for developers who want to move from idea → execution without getting buried in setup. It provides just enough structure to stay organized while remaining flexible enough for experimentation, automation, and production-ready systems.
Whether you're building workflows, CLI utilities, or reusable libraries, QuickStart keeps your codebase sharp, modular, and maintainable.
- Orchestrated workflows with Prefect
- Command-line tools with clear structure
- Reusable Python packages
- Automation pipelines and internal tooling
QuickStart follows three core principles:
- Clarity over clutter → Every file has a reason to exist
- Modularity first → Components are reusable and composable
- Separation of concerns → Logic, interfaces, and execution are cleanly divided
This makes it ideal for both learning modern Python architecture and shipping real-world systems efficiently.
# 1. Clone the repository git clone <your-repo-url> # 2. Create and activate virtual environment python -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate # 3. Install dependencies (editable mode) pip install -e . # 4. Run the starter example python 01_getting_started.py
