Problem Statement

When starting a new open-source project, there are several setup tasks required before writing any code.
For example: Issue Templates, Pull Request Templates, Code of Conduct, Contribution Guide, branch rules, and commit conventions all need to be configured manually.

This process is repetitive, time-consuming, and often inconsistent across projects.
oss-kit solves this by providing a ready-to-use template that ensures consistent and modern project initialization for anyone starting an open-source repository.
