Allows the generated AppConfig class to use a custom name derived from `app_config_name`, supporting optional `app_module` specification.
New Features
- Replace `app_name|title` placeholder with `app_config_name` for flexible config naming.
- Add conditional block that sets `name` to `app_module` when provided, otherwise falls back to `app_name`.
Enhancements
- Maintain backward compatibility by defaulting to the original `app_name` behavior.
- Improve template flexibility for future naming conventions.
Bug Fixes
- None.
This change introduces a helper to replace app entries in USER_DEFINED_APPS and makes the startapp command more flexible by allowing callers to specify the app module name.
New Features:
- Add replace_app_in_user_defined_apps utility function in djinit/utils/common.py
- Introduce app_config_name context and accept app_module argument in DjangoHelper.startapp()
Enhancements:
- Preserve indentation when replacing entries
- Allow custom app module specification instead of defaulting to app_name
Bug Fixes: (none)
New Features
- Adopt double-bracket placeholders (`[[ var ]]`) and rename templates to `.py-tpl`/.`md-tpl` extensions.
- Introduce new `runtime_txt-tpl` template.
Enhancements
- Update `api_readme`, `models`, `apps`, `routes`, `pyproject`, `readme`, and `requirements` templates with new syntax and naming.
- Align placeholder naming with a unified convention.
Bug Fixes
- None.
- New Features

- Bug Fixes
* None
New Features
- Adopted .py-tpl/.j2-tpl suffixes for generated templates, making them distinct and Python-specific.
Enhancements
- Refactored TemplateEngine to use InFileLogicParser instead of Jinja2, simplifying rendering logic.
- Updated CLI utility to call create_pyproject for pyproject.toml generation.
- Modified template discovery to scan only files ending in -tpl.
- Adjusted file generation paths for Django app components and configuration files.
Bug Fixes
- Resolved template path resolution issues arising from the new suffix convention.
This change updates all template references from *.j2 to *.py-tpl to align with the new file naming convention and adds the required context for URL generation.
New Features
- Updated template paths to *.py-tpl for init, manage.py, settings, and component files
- Added `url_type` context for URL generation templates
Enhancements
- Modified `create_init_file` to use `init.py-tpl` template
- Updated all `create_file_from_template` calls to reference `.py-tpl` templates
- Adjusted context for URL templates to include project‑specific data
- Switched component URL template to `config/urls.py-tpl`
Bug Fixes
- None
New Features
- Replace hardcoded `core.settings.production` with templated `{{ project_name }}.settings.production` in both ASGI and WSGI config templates, enabling per‑project settings customization.
Enhancements

- None
Set the default DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable to point to the production settings module derived from the project name, ensuring the Django management script runs with the correct configuration when no explicit DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is provided.

Refines the Dependabot auto-merge workflow by removing unnecessary whitespace, simplifying the conditional syntax, and updating the token reference for improved security.
**Enhancements & Refinements**
- Removed leading whitespace at the start of the file for cleaner formatting
- Simplified the `if` condition syntax from `${{github.actor == 'dependabot[bot]' }}` to `github.actor == 'dependabot[bot]'`
- Updated the GitHub token reference from `secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN` to `secrets.DEPENDABOT_TOKEN` for better security practices
- Fixed capitalization in step name from "Merge PR from dependabot" to "Merge PR from Dependabot" for consistency
```
The dependabot auto-merge workflow has been updated to use a new action and simplified logic for merging pull requests.
- **Enhancements & Refinements**:

- Simplified the workflow by removing conditional logic for update types
- Updated the condition syntax to use explicit expression syntax
- Added explicit `github-token` configuration for the new action
```
The Dependabot auto-merge workflow has been simplified and focused on essential functionality. Approval steps have been removed, leaving only the core auto-merge capability for minor and patch updates.
