Hi Massimo, thanks for web2py, I have used it for my business to track paid time off https://ptocheck.com of our employees, so its a great framework for niche apps, sort-of like filemaker https://www.filemaker.com. Your comment "py4web is designed for APIs" confused me because that is what https://falconframework.org does. Isn't py4web more than that? Isn't it more for applications where users can stay logged, more of a younger brother to web2py? regards Ben
