Hello, I am a PHP developer interested in understanding the fundamentals of web2py framework and after reading the book and the documentation, I have some questions which I would very much appreciate to have answered.
1) Why (or "is") a VPS is necessary to host web2py Python web-apps? Can it not run under any Linux shared web-host which has python installed? 2) Is web2py restrictive in any way? How broad is the freedom to define custom routes, naming controllers, models and views? Can this happen without sharing the same name? 3) What is web2py approach to configuration, settings and programming? CoC? What do you think about it? 4) Is it possible to get web2py like PHP frameworks without installations? Do an unzip and have the folder structure to develop on without admin interfaces and such? 5) What would be deemed as good read for people from PHP background to understand web2py's ways? Thank you
