wtf is cookiecutter-github?

This project, cookiecutter-github, is a tool that automatically creates a new GitHub repository for you and puts a basic project structure inside it. Instead of manually setting up a new repo, creating starter files, and pushing your first commit, this tool handles those steps in one go. At a high level, it works by using Cookiecutter, which is a utility that generates project templates. When you run it, it asks you a few questions about your new project (like what you want to name it), creates a bare-bones set of starter files based on your answers, and then uses the GitHub API to create an actual repository on your GitHub account and upload those files to it. Someone who frequently starts new projects and wants to skip the repetitive setup work would find this handy. For example, if you are a developer or a technical founder who prototypes a lot of ideas and wants each one in its own GitHub repo without the manual clicks and file creation, this tool is built for that workflow. It is explicitly labeled as experimental. The README notes that the functionality is planned to become a Cookiecutter plugin eventually, and it depends on a specific version of Cookiecutter that was not yet released at the time of writing. The installation also involves some manual steps and troubleshooting around Python version compatibility, suggesting it is currently a work in progress rather than a polished, ready-for-everyone product.
