In that particular case its probably less adopting and more 'the mochikit autor writes stuff for twisted'. Despite me complaining about identity and some other things that I don't like about TG, I like it quite a bit. The object mapping and templating in Django is custom , while TG uses foreign projects that are quite well supported ( like sqlobject and sqlalchemy , kid + all the plugins ). Django seems incredibly well suited for CMS style projects, while TG has the potential for more interactive ones. I haven't touched TwistedWeb in a while - I gave up wrting my own stuff in it 2yrs ago when it went through an alpha period of changing the API/the fundamentals of how things work every other week. I'm sure the web stuff is way more stable and useable now. In any event, the Twisted guys are incredibly brilliant, and simply amazing at networking stuff, but I've always felt that their web components were a bit too influenced by the networking code - ie, if you're comfortable with the Twisted Core style, you'll be fine writing webapp in twisted - but if you're more used to general webapp programming, it can be a bit awkward getting used to their style. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
