If you don’t know much about TurboGears, here’s an
overview. TurboGears
is a Python web application framework consisting of several
underlying components such as MochiKit, SQLObject, CherryPy and Kid.
TurboGears is designed around the MVC (model-view-controller)
architecture, like Struts or Ruby on Rails, designed to make rapid web
application development in Python easier and more maintainable.
TurboGears was created in 2005 by Kevin Dangoor. When he released it as
an open source framework in the end of September 2005, it received more
than 30,000 screencast downloads in the first 3 months! As of Febuary
2007, TurboGears has a large and vibrant community, nearly 3000 users
on the high traffic TurboGears mailing list. Visit www.turbogears.org
