Well, I was thinking that usually you write the controller first. If you click an [Add view] button, it could check which functions are missing a view and give you two options in a popup, or pop-down? (don't know what it is called);
--------- Add view for function: [Link: missing_view_function1] [Link: missing_view_function2] OR add one with name: Name: [ ] [Add View] ---------- Mostly you would just click on the missing view function link and you would not misspell the file name, which is a quite common error and it would reduce writing. Also you would not add one by mistake if there is one already. // cheers On Monday, December 9, 2013 5:10:20 PM UTC+1, Paolo Valleri wrote: > > It is a good idea that could speed up the initial development phase; > We could start by implementing some like that: while you edit the > controller test.py at the top you will get a button 'add view' that when > clicked creates a file (a view actually) in the directory app/views/test; > the file name could be get by a dialog.
