webapp2 doesn't provide a 'user account management' thing. App Engine is something much more than just app instances hosting.
Take for instance built-in Users/authentication service. Using that you can make it so that any user on the planet with Google Account, OpenID, OAuth 1 or OAuth 2 (via Cloud Endpoints) can sign in to your app, w/o you creating an account for them beforehand. All you'd have to do is something like assign permissions (if there's a permission concept in your app). So, Django's standalone user account management doesn't not fully fit into this thing. You could go ahead and let your users sign in with their twitter, facebook, yahoo and what have you accounts. Who uses passwords these days, anyway :) On Thu, Dec 6, 2012 at 11:07 PM, Will <[email protected]> wrote: > My biggest concern is 'user account management'.
