Litestar Project Generator.

Scaffold a ready-to-run Litestar API for Python with a clean project structure, SQLModel ORM, SQLite database, and Alembic migrations in one command. The code is yours, with no runtime dependency on TriStack.

Why Litestar

Litestar is an ASGI framework with class-based controllers, built-in dependency injection, and first-class support for SQLAlchemy and msgspec. It favors explicit structure over decorators on loose functions.

  • Larger APIs that benefit from controller classes
  • Projects that want dependency injection without extra libraries
  • Teams coming from Django REST framework or NestJS
