Thanks for all of your help. I'm just a bit confused. Let's say I develop a Python app, say a web- based game, using web2py framework for the game website and the built- in webserver for initial development and testng. Now after I'm finshed testing and developing I want to move my game server code and game website to a production server at some hostng site. Will it run on the hosting server without having to install and run the web2py webserver software?
