A Django starter template designed specifically for PC stores, with dynamic product management and API-first architecture.

Overview#

This project is a ready-to-use backend template for creating PC-focused e-commerce websites.
It provides a strong foundation with features like:

  • πŸ–₯️ Dynamic categories (CPU, GPU, laptops, peripherals, etc.)
  • πŸ” Advanced filtering & sorting of products
  • πŸ›’ Cart, wishlist, and guest checkout
  • 🏷️ Product tags (promo, out of stock, new)
  • πŸ—οΈ Build My PC feature (combine components + calculate total)
  • πŸ–ΌοΈ Homepage banners with dynamic activation
  • πŸ“¦ Order management with delivery methods and pricing

Technologies Used#

  • Django & DRF – Robust backend and REST API layer
  • PostgreSQL – Relational database for structured product data
  • Docker & Docker Compose – Easy containerized setup
  • Celery & Redis (optional) – For background tasks

API Logic#

This project is built API-first, making it easy to connect with any frontend (Next.js, React, etc.).

Attributes & Values#

A key feature is the flexible attribute system:

  • Attribute: Defines a characteristic of a product (e.g., Number of Cores).
  • AttributeValue: Represents possible values (e.g., 4 / 8 / 12 cores).

This enables precise filtering (e.g., β€œShow CPUs with 8 cores”) and a scalable way to manage PC components.


Why Use This Starter?#

Instead of starting from scratch, this boilerplate gives you:

  • A PC-focused structure out of the box
  • Dynamic product handling with attributes/values
  • REST APIs ready for frontend integration
  • A clean codebase for extending into a full e-commerce solution
