What this article taught me is the mind-boggling plethora of Python web frameworks out there. I'm heavily into Django myself, and it does well enough that I'm curious as to the demand for the other frameworks. How many Python web frameworks do you really need in 2012?
- samlev 15y agoFor me? Two. Django is good for getting a site/system up and running fast, so long as I'm not too concerned with specific implementation details (the users 'just work', etc.) Pyramid is good for a longer-term/more custom system where being easily able to modify (or choose) particular implementation details is important to me. It's not as fast to get a full-featured site off the ground, but the pieces glue together in a way that I really like. I think that there was a well known post many years ago about "glue" and "full stack" frameworks, comparing pylons (now pyramid) as the former, and django as the latter. #EDIT: Oh, and I used to do a bit of work with Zope/Plone, but that's pretty much what you'd consider to be the 'enterprisey' setup for python, and I wouldn't recommend it for most uses.
- inovica 15y agoThat mirrors exactly our experience. We have used Pyramid for three recent project and its awesome. It just takes a little longer, but its flexibility is impressive. We've just used it with Pure templates also, which I was very impressed with
