Anyone out there using web2py? [closed]

Answer 1

I used web2py for small projects so far, but I hope to introduce it in my company. It's my favorite web framework.

My blog is running on GAE with web2py.

I also have a facebook apps running on top of web2py: My Top 10 Gift

Answer 2

I am using web2py with gae and google datastore in production of custom application , it is a very good framework.

I did made some minor fixes for work good on GAE, work fast and stable, i have published the Web2Py version changes uses on my github soyharso.

The uploads to GAE are fast, the version control app engine is secure, the free tier offer google for tuning your code is excellent, the monthly cost is adequate

Answer 3

I am using web2py in production. Currently while in early production we are developing with SQLite because it is easy and it comes out of the box but later we will probably switch to MySQL. I don' think there are any plans to use Google App Engine.

Answer 4

I vote for Web2py. I only have time to develop small but useful stuff for my own use.

Hopefully next month I will have an oppty to create an app that is perfect for Web2py and run on Google app engine.

Web2py = breath of fresh air!

Answer 5

I'm using web2py for a small web app. It's running the HITs on a Mechanical Turk project, and giving me an interface to control and visualize them. I started on Google App Engine, but then got sick of the little annoyances of not having direct database access and having to wait forever each time I want to upload my code, and moved to a local server with postgres. GAE makes most things harder in order to make a few scaling things easier... stay away from it unless you really need their scaling help.

I like web2py a lot. Compared to Django and Ruby on Rails, it's WAY easier to learn and get going. Everything is simple. You get stuff done fast. Massimo is everywhere solving your problems (even on this board haha).

Answer 6

As Massimo points out above, the team at tenthrow uses web2py for tenthrow.com

We did most of our development work during 2009. Our stack uses cherokee, web2py, postgresql, and amazon s3. We had done many python web implementations prior to this on a variety of frameworks and backends. To say that we simply could not have done tenthrow so quickly and easily without web2py is an understatement. It's the best kept secret in web development.
