Improvement Description

A more rich, featured version of view init should be implemented. It should include (at least) the following:

• Git repo initialization
• Component setup (#12 and #90)
• Along with component setup, presets with various UI libraries (Tailwind, Bootstrap)
• Install dependencies
• Database setup (This can be put off until #10 is done)
• Virtual environment setup

Anything else?

No response

Will do without #12 for now.

#94 is all that can be done for now. Will leave this open until it's fully done.

When #12 is finished and this gets redone, view init should also add some linters and other things to be setup

• mypy
• flake8 (or this weird new thing called ruff)
• mypyc?

When #56 is finished, a static files directory could also be added.
