I'm new to Web2Py and like it a lot. I must say I was rather lost in the admin UI at first. And still find it a bit slow to navigate within. One thing I would like is to be able to have each section (models/controllers/views et.c) on separate pages. In that case one could easily open each one in a browser tab and switch between them easily (with the tab named accordingly). I using that approach in other web apps.
I like the bright greenish colors btw. :-) Regards Jonas Eriksson On 3 Nov, 11:03, Branko Vukelic <[email protected]> wrote: > Sorry, I meant more in the way of how it works, rather than how you > like it.
