Demo Sites Builder

Django app that creates client websites in two flavors:

• Static HTML/CSS package.
• Django demo project with ecommerce scaffolding and contact/email flow.

Includes local Ollama integration for AI-generated copy and section content.

Local setup with uv

1. Create virtual environment:
   • uv venv .venv
2. Activate it:
   • source .venv/bin/activate
3. Install dependencies:
   • uv sync
4. Run migrations and seed template catalog:
   • uv run python manage.py migrate
   • uv run python manage.py seed_templates
5. Start dev server:
   • uv run python manage.py runserver

Docker

• Build and run:
  • docker compose up --build

The app is available at http://localhost:8000.

By default, container points Ollama requests to http://host.docker.internal:11434.

Client templates

Place purchased themes under:

• templates/template_1/ — NeuralSync (static HTML in Main File/NeuralSync/)
• templates/template_2/ — Eventio (Next.js in eventio/eventio-HTML/)
• templates/template_3/ — Waves (static HTML in site/)
• templates/template_4/ — Multipurpose business (static HTML in site/)

Run uv run python manage.py seed_templates after adding or changing template folders.
