I am a C# (windows apps) developer, so getting started with Python on GAE, I am at a bit of a loss as to what frameworks (or API’s, etc) to use for “professional site development”
For example I see: Backbone, web2py, django, Enyo, Kendo, Meteor, Node.js etc etc.
Some of these seem to be full web app frameworks, some javascript frameworks, some javascript UI frameworks… some (like Node.js) from my research do not seem to work on GAE.
so my question: Could a professional Python dev please give me a suggestion for framework(s) a small (5 person) dev team could pursue for rich “web 2.0” GAE/Python site development?
Thank you so much, and sorry for being unspecific, just without industry experience, it is very difficult to objectively evaluate the best choice.
In web development, client-side (javascript) frameworks are mostly separate from server-side (python) frameworks, so “a Python framework … for rich “web 2.0″ development” does not make much sense – any of Python web frameworks can serve as a backend for your “web 2.0” application.
So, basically, you find a Python framework which suits your needs and works with GAE, then you find a JS framework which suits your needs and possibly has an integration layer with your Python framework, although the latter is not really important.
