The Google App Engine Boilerplate helps to get your project off the ground quickly over Google App Engine platform. It introduces new developers to App Engine or even *advanced developer* to copying best practices.
Boilerplate is used to describe sections of code that can be reused over and over in new contexts or applications which provides good default values, reducing the need to specify program details in every project. (wikipedia)
It is complete (the most required features for an application) and uses latest technologies supported on Google App Engine.
If you don’t know what is Google App Engine, I recommend before to watch this video and read this website.
