Interesting idea. I've been using Django for 10+ years and like all the choices you've made here. Not 100% what I personally prefer but close. And the decisions I differ on I'm curious about: "Hmm, should I be doing it that way?"

In the past few months I've been working on side projects and have gone through the process of setting up a similar template (just for my own use), which I've used with two different side projects.

I think my interest in buying this is not so much to replace my own template but to borrow parts of it.

From the borrow perspective, I wonder if this could be worth it to some established, non-agency companies that use Django.

Really nice code you can copypasta over? Doesn't take too much of that to get to $1000 of value.

I could absolutely see the "borrow some code" angle. Especially if you have an existing/established project where it would be pretty hard to integrate everything anyway. $1000 is not much for a company looking for another "professional Django resource" (if that's what it is).

Would have no issue with some people paying for access, borrowing some stuff, and being a part of a "community" of people sharing variations of the ideas and occasionally factoring that in to the Forge code itself, copying it out, etc.
