Features? web.py doesn't really have any features that I know of. It's very minimalist, which is really the best part about it. There's no ORM (but you can use SQLAlchemy if that's your thing). There's no advanced url handling (so you can't, say generate a url based on the handler with ease like you can in rails [or I think even Django now]). There wasn't even a standard way to do sessions until the recent release. So, why use it? Well, it doesn't force you into anything, but provides you with enough useful things to easily put an application on the web. It might not be for you (to tell you the truth, it might not be for me either), but for right now, it's what's working for me. I guess the point is, try it and see if it fits. It's not hard to learn, which is another reason to like it. -- http://www.apgwoz.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web.py" group.
