Warpdrive, making Python web application deployment magically easy
summary
Warpdrive automates the tedious steps: it creates a virtualenv, installs requirements, runs Django migrations and collectstatic, and captures setup commands so database init and superuser creation are repeatable. It can create a Docker image (or feed OpenShift/Heroku source-to-image), run the same build locally, and auto-configures mod_wsgi or choose gunicorn/waitress with proper logging and ports. Commands include warpdrive build/start/image/exec/setup and hooks for extra pre/post steps so deployment matches local dev.
