well I am hired in a job which I have to edit the companies html code and css. They use google apps engine.
I am trying to figure out what google apps engine is all about. the files are given to me and I have to add stuff to the website. I do know python I just never used it hard core just done small labs. I never made a program with it. I need to at least know how I can edit files that are given to me and upload the app in the dev.company domain to test it and then make it live. I also do need to edit datastore to change stuff. I had to change some parts of the form on the website. Like a blog text basicly the clients will leave feedback but I need to make changes on how it's stored to store the whole text. It used to be a username input but changed to a long text input.
