I'm struggling to understand the point of the handlers section of the app.yaml. It seems redundant but that doesn't seem smart so assuming that isn't true what don't I understand?
So, doesn't the file extension already indicate how a file should be handled? Is it possible to tell the engine to handle .html files as .py files and if the content is python will that actually work? I realize that with app.yaml you can also specify that all graphics (or whatever file pattern) are in a certain directory, etc.. but can't you just reference that directory in the original call to the graphic from the html? Is there an advantage to having to create and specify an app.yaml file to avoid having to specify where files are in the directory structure? I'm new to python and google app engine but I've worked with VB, .NET, HTML, CSS, javascript, COM, etc... and before diving in to this structure I'd like to understand the point of it's components. I've tried to search and find the point of app.yaml but so far I've come up blank. Links or reasoning would be appreciated.
