Several key points: * A framework to make writing web applications in Python easy * Utilizes a minimalist, component-based philosophy that makes it easy to expand on * Harness existing knowledge about Python Knowing Python makes Pylons easy --------------------------------- Pylons makes it easy to expand on your knowledge of Python to master Pylons for web development. Using a MVC style dispath, Python knowledge is used at various levels: * The Controller is just a basic Python class, called for each request. Customizing the response is as easy as overriding __call__ to make your webapp work how you want. * Mako templating compiles directly to Python byte-code for speed and utilizes Python for template control rather than creating its own template syntax for "for, while, etc" Current Status --------------- Pylons 0.9.7 described on this page is stable.
