It's not a requirement, but it is recommended that you install Python using Pyenv with the virtualenvwrapper plugin.

Quickstart

Example output:

$ cd ~/Sites
$ bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/epicserve/django-base-site/master/scripts/start_new_project)

What is the project name slug [example]?

Done.
