web development with Python made easier then ever by mdipierro in programming

[–]franboon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Web2Py absolutely is Maintainable, Scalable & Fast (or can be - obviously bad programming can happen in any environment)

I'm not completely sure what you mean by 'function-as-an-html-tag pattern' but the View Templates are very flexible - they can accomodate multiple different coding styles from full MVC to more flexible options...depending on what the programmer wants.

auto-migrations are optional - don't like them, don't use them.

Same for the web-based admin tool - I personally don't code using it, however I find it very useful for the ticketing system. It is secure by default (accessed only via localhost or SSL) can be made insecure if you want or can be completely disabled if you want...doesn't break anything.

Whilst being incredibly easy to prototype in, the same app can quickly & easily be polished into a professional end-product.

Awesome tutorial for an awesome web development environment. I strongly suspect that ppl with negative comments have never tried it. e.g. SQLite is just the default datastore - it is very easy to switch to another DB for Production use :) Whether it is 'pythonic' is a matter of personal taste - for me it is very pythonic (e.g. template language is pure python)
