The main purpose of this topic guide is to help in choosing a framework for web programming without having to learn each of them. In addition, information about different PresentationTechnologies is also provided, where appropriate, since this can be a major deciding factor in choosing a framework.

Although comments and clarifications by the framework authors are very much appreciated, adding a standard signature like InTheirOwnWords would help to bring words like 'easy' and 'intuitive' into context. Opinions based on experience are welcome, but framework or templating system authors should sign their comments with InTheirOwnWords to admit to a certain bias.

This topic guide is a word by word copy of PaulBoddie's [http://www.boddie.org.uk/python/web_frameworks.html Python Web Frameworks Overview]. Putting it into Wiki format hopefully allows more people to contribute.

The main purpose of this topic guide is to help in choosing between the plethora of frameworks and templating systems for web programming, without having to learn each of them. In addition, information about different PresentationTechnologies is also provided, where appropriate, since this can be a major deciding factor in choosing a framework.

Opinions based on experience are welcome, but framework or templating system authors should sign their comments with InTheirOwnWords to admit to a certain bias.

The rather strict format of the main entries (described in WebProgrammingTemplateHelp) should not been seen as a limit. Feel free to add new pages containing examples, direct comparisons etc.

When adding new entries choose WebProgrammingTemplate when creating the page.

To Do

  • The templating systems should really get a different page layout, showing examples etc.
  • describe PHP and Java in the same format as quite a few will want to compare to them anyway

  • Is there any interest in a WebProgrammingShootOut?
