That was me before Pylons and WSGI. Web frameworks were like 1980s microcomputers: every one was monolithic and non-interoperable. I started using minimalist frameworks where I could read the entire docs and code in half an hour. But they were so minimalist I had to write my own database adapter, template integration, session manager, and authentication/authorization. One thing that drew me to Pylons and Pyramid was I could leverage libraries written by experts, yet they were still modular and non-monolithic, so it's relatively easy to substitute one of the libraries if you want to. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
