Pylons Web Framework
Project description
Pylons
======
The Pylons web framework is aimed at making webapps and large programmatic website
development in Python easy. Several key points:
* A framework to make writing web applications in Python easy
* Inspired by Rails and TurboGears
* Utilizes a minimalist, component-based philosophy that makes it easy to expand on
* Harness existing knowledge about Python
Knowing Python makes Pylons easy
---------------------------------
Pylons makes it easy to expand on your knowledge of Python to master Pylons for web
development. Using a MVC style dispath, Python knowledge is used at various levels:
* The Controller is just a basic Python class, called for each request.
Customizing the
response is as easy as overriding __call__ to make your webapp work how you want.
* Myghty templating compiles directly to Python byte-code for speed and utilizes
Python
for template control rather than creating its own template syntax for "for,
while, etc"
Current Status
---------------
Pylons 0.9.4 described on this page is stable.
Download and Installation
-------------------------
Pylons can be installed with `Easy Install
<http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall>`_ by typing::
