What goes into a python project estimate

These are the tasks most people forget when quoting python projects. e2spec's AI detects all of them automatically from your project description.

  • Project setup (Django / Flask / FastAPI)
  • Database models and migrations
  • API endpoints or view layer
  • Authentication and permissions
  • Background task processing (Celery)
  • Data processing and validation
  • Admin interface configuration
  • Testing (pytest, coverage)
  • Docker containerization
  • Deployment and environment management
