=== InTheirOwnWords === CherryPy is a Python-based tool for developing dynamic web sites. It uses many powerful concepts together, which makes it unique in its approach to web site development. CherryPy has been used in production for more than 6 months are we are now releasing it to the public, under the GPL license. Key properties/features of CherryPy are: * Based exclusively on Python (runs everywhere Python runs) * Sits between a compiler and an application server * Delivers fast, robust, and scalable web sites * Uses OOP as well as AOP (Aspect Oriented Programming) concepts to develop web sites * True separation of content and presentation * Simple but powerful templating language * Powerful standard libraries to make your life easy Other properties/features are: * Can be linked to many databases (Oracle, Sybase, MySql, PostgreSql, ...) * Can run behind another webserver (Apache, ...) * Easy clustering and load-balancing set up for high-traffic web sites |

CherryPy is a pythonic, object-oriented web development framework.
CherryPy allows developers to build web applications in much the same way they would build any other object-oriented Python program. This usually results in smaller source code developed in less time.
CherryPy is now more than three years old and it is has proven very fast and stable. It is being used in production by many sites, from the simplest ones to the most demanding ones.
CherryPy does its best to stay out of the way between the programmer and the problem. CherryPy applications are usually very simple. It works out of the box; default behavior is sensible enough to allow use without extensive setup or customization. The embedded web server allows one to deploy web applications anywhere Python is installed. In short, CherryPy is as pythonic as it gets.

Comments
Supports with built-in code/tools:
- Authorization.
- Redirecting unhandled errors.
- Unicode (and UTF-8): specifiable per-path, so different portions of your site can use different encoding/decoding schemes.
JSON.
- Testing.
Multiple virtual hosts, multiple HTTP servers at once.
- Apache, IIS, mod_python, FastCGI, SCGI, and mod_wsgi.
- Configurable and swappable every part of it.
- Flexible plugin system.
- No learning curves if you are a Python developer.
CherryPy integrates beautifully with SQLObject (SqlObject) and Cheetah.
TurboGears builds on CherryPy.
