Hi Alec, Nothing prevents you from altering the settings file dynamically and telling the user to restart the webserver. You can run wih an in-memory SQLite database until this is done.
So your question isn't related to the development of Django itself; it would be more appropriate on django-users. Note that deploying a Django project is a bit more complicated than a PHP project (just throw the files in WWW_ROOT). IMO setting up the database isn't the most difficult step. I don't know any projects that provide this feature. Best regards, -- Aymeric.
