Cookiecutter Default Library Template

A Cookiecutter template for bootstrapping a modern Python library project. This setups a simple library with Python 3.14, ruff for linting and formatting, ty for type checking, and prek for pre-commit hooks, as well as the necessary hooks for those tools.

Features

• Pre-generation hook verifies uv, git, and Python 3.14.
• Modern pyproject.toml configuration with uv and prek defaults using ty and ruff.

Installation

Install Cookiecutter:

uv tool install cookiecutter

Ensure uv, git, and Python 3.14 are available.

Configure Git with your user.name and user.email before running the template so the initial commit can be created:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"

Usage

Generate a new project:

cookiecutter gh:VictorF13/cookiecutter-default-lib

Answer the prompts and a skeleton library will be created.
