September 7, 2026 Spawn — open-source CLI that scaffolds a full Python project in one command

Built a tool called Spawn to kill the repetitive part of starting a new Python project — folder structure, git init, virtual environment, and dependency installation, all done in one command instead of the usual 5-10 minute manual ritual.

pip install spawnio

spawn create

It ships with 8 built-in project templates (Backend API, CLI App, Automation Tool, AI Chatbot, AI Agent, RAG System, Data Project, MCP Server), or you can paste any custom folder structure and it'll build exactly that. There's also a spawn doctor command that scores an existing project's health and tells you the single most important thing to fix first.

Open source under MIT, live on PyPI.

Would genuinely love feedback — especially from anyone who's used similar tools (Cookiecutter, Copier, etc.) and has thoughts on what a scaffolder like this is missing.

About

Spawn exists because I was tired of typing the same setup commands for every new Python project. Built a CLI that does it all in one command — now it's a real, community-tested open-source tool.
