Thanks - yeah, there's a lot of optimisation still to do on load times. (We need some JS to let you write client-side code in Python, but we know we can load it a lot faster.) I'm intrigued what smelt "overly engineered" to you, though. We're trying quite hard to keep the programming interface simple, so if something there offended you, that's good to know. (Or if it was another comment about load time, then...yeah. That just went up the bug tracker a bit.)

I mean the demo feels over-engineered. Create an account, activate account by email, and login... just to download a 1-page pdf. I understand that the point of the demo was to show the ability to create a working web-app, but a better demo would showcase something with more meat than a single file download. Perhaps a simple twitter clone with file attachments or something along those lines instead of a file download app that has no other functionality. Thanks for the reply!

  Aha! Yeah, that makes sense. It descends from a use case a consulting client had a while ago (for which they ended up with a $X0,000 Salesforce deployment instead of something I could build in an afternoon with Anvil, and in a few days without it). Clearly not an obviously accessible example - we'll fix that up a little :) ("Twitter clone with attachments" is one we use in workshops, actually - it fits neatly into a single session. Guess I should write that up.)
