Django does need a better setup. It's the worst part about setting up a project, including setting up multiple configurations of local developer environment, a production environment, a remote Git repository, etc..
Dj-beat-drop is more about making minimal changes to the official Django templates. It mainly involves standardizing to a config directory for configuration code and optionally using an `env` file and `uv` for package management.
By keeping things minimal, the chances of it getting accepted as an official Django project seem better. It would need to be renamed, of course, to something like django-installer or django-cli.
