I want to have nice platform to allow me to easily build small-medium web sites ranging from site for our small company, non-profit organization, private one, sites for friends, relatives etc. At the moment for some of them I use PHP solutions (e.g. Concrete5) and although I like the platform providing decent CMS, nice blog and plethora of add-ons, there are some gotchas: 1) it's PHP into which I do not want to go (considering we'll soon start work on pyqt desktop app) and prefer to stay with Python 2) the code/environment is not as nicely organized 3) almost every add-on is commercial and along with 1) we lack ability to customize/build everything according to our needs Those reasons have brought me to Python where I tried/played with Django for some time, but, somehow 'nothing clicked in my brain' and I have arrived to Web2py which satisfy 1-3 above. :-) Of course, Web2py CMS (e.g Instant Press) is not as feature-wise as Concrete5, blog is not capable as e.g. C5's Pro Blog, there are not so many add-ons (plugins) as for C5, but we're thinking about the future. However, we're ready to learn and master web2py and help to become even better platform for developing (small-medium) sites offering many free plugings so that one an easily achieve everything as with e.g. Concrete5 by using secure Python framework. > So I would say that it depends in what you have to do, web2py could > save you a lot of time... just give it a try for a full small project > and then you will be able to give back your opinions... I hope that above explains a bit what I'm into...hoping that web2py is the right choice for that. > all the best Thank you for your input.
