I thought about this for a while myself. I think when using GAE, it's
best to use webapp. Web.py's top features are either non-functional or
a PITA when using GAE. You can't use web.py's db wrapper (which I like
a lot) and templates must be constantly compiled if you choose to use
Templetor (which I also like a lot). What's left (at least in my
case), are some nice conveniences with web.py but nothing game
changing. For example, it's a bit more annoying to write
self.response.out.write instead of just return. Or render.templatename
(vars) is a lot easier than template_values = {
'var': var
}
path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),
'template.html')
self.response.out.write(template.render(path,
template_values))
