Projects.

 

 

chrome-loggerpython (github.com)

Very neat, chrome-logger allows you to import the chromelogger module into your project and allow you to log output to the chrome console in your browser.

 

colout (github.com)

Use colout to colorize output on the commandline. Check out the examples on the github page.

 

mackup (github.com)

Sync your Mac application files on dropbox easily with mackup. Supports many applications currently with more to come.

 

django-deployer (github.com)

Most people use one platform for deploying django projects. django-deployer aims to make it so that there is one settings file to rule them all. After asking a few questions you can deploy your application to any of the PaaS providers. Dotcloud, Stackato, Google App Engine, and more to come soon.

 

bumpversion (github.com)

bumping version numbers can be annoying at best, and everyone forgets to tag every release. bumpversion simplifies that down to a simple command.
