Web
Applications with Python and the Pyramid Framework - In this Web
Applications with Python and the Pyramid Framework training course,
expert author Paul Everitt will teach you about the features needed for
Python web development, as well as Pyramid’s unique features. This
course is designed for users that already have a basic knowledge of
Python.
You will start by learning about single file web apps, templating,
and multiple routes and views. From there, Paul will teach you about
MyApp Python package, views and routes, and templating and static
assets. This video tutorial also covers forms, databases, and sessions,
authentication and authorization, and JSON. Finally, you will learn
about extensibility, including custom configuration settings, extending
and overriding, and custom view predicates.
Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will
have gained a basic understanding of the features needed for Python web
development and the features unique to Pyramid.
