---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "prataprc" <prataprc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: 6 Dec 2011 07:34 Subject: [chennaipy 1149] Request for comment : pluggdapps To: <chennaipy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I am an open source programmer in python, C and linux, have authored couple of tools called eazytext (wiki processor), tayra (web templating language) and CouchPy (CouchDB database modelling tool) all released under GPL v3. This email is about a web framework, released recently, called pluggdapps, and I request your comments on the same. I will try to reason out why I went about building this pluggdapps, 1. It is an attempt to unify Model-View-Controller design pattern and a plugin architecture. To highlight an important road-block in current web-frameworks, plugin designs break at view-templating. It is difficult to provide a plugin system without compromising on MVC. But with pluggdapps I hope this problem is solved. And couple of smaller ones got solved along the way :) 2. NoSQL databases, although immature and yet to evolve, are challenging SQL databases in web domain. pluggdapps have assumed CouchDB as the default database, and roles out a modelling tool-kit called CouchPy to build expertise around NoSQL database. 3. Lot of development in web is to do with browser-technologies. pluggdapps include a comprehensive templating tool kit called Tayra. It is inspired from Mako (from pylons) and HAML (from Rails) and has best of both worlds. And it is the only web-templating tool that support template-plugins. 4. With ideas like WebSockets, SVG, WebStorage, WebGL, HTML5 coming up on web, having a framework and a community can help us build some amazing technologies in future. I sincerely anticipate your feedback. Right now I am more or less working full-time on this and your comments can be of immense use to me.
