When you want to create a new Django project, instead of using startproject - you can use cookiecutter.

And run it against the repo:
cookiecutter https://github.com/cookiecutter/cookiecutter-django
You'll be prompted for some values. Provide them, then a Django project will be created for you. Follow the on-screen options to finish the installation.
