Create a new project folder and setup git using a python script

This litte project was inspired by a youtube video I watched the other day about automating everyday things with python

Assumptions or requirements

You are running Windows 10 (at least)
You have python 3 installed on your system
You have git installed
You have the new GitHub CLI tool (gh) installed as well.
You have gone through the gh login process and are able to create repositories using gh
You have VS code installed. We use it at the end, but it is not needed

UPDATE: Inncluded an option to setup a virtual environment when the folder is created. The environment is not activated by default but that can be done later when you are ready to start working on your project.
For the Virtual Environment to work, you will need to run pip3 install virtualenv or run pip3 install -r requirements.txt.
Using your favourite editor (vscode), edit the line 7 in the create_project.py script to match your file structure.

# For Windows
chgDir = os.chdir('C:\\Users\\phil4\\Documents\\development')
# For Linux
chgDir = os.chdir('/home/sspade/Documents/development')

Open a Powershell terminal and run: (change folder name to match whatever name you want)

python .\create_project.py <folder name>

This should create the new folder and setup git init
It will also create the repository on GitHub for you
If, like me, you are using ssh auth, you will be asked to enter your pass phrase.
That's it.
