You need to make a scalable api on a deadline. You deeply care about the quality of your work. cookiecutter-django-rest takes care of the details so you can focus on making your api awesome. Scaffolding a project takes seconds and it gives you authentication, user accounts, and the docs and tests to support them. Just add your own resources to the api and start shipping. ✨ 💅
