Pylons Project

The Pylons Project is composed of a disparate group of project leaders with experience going back to the very start of Python web frameworks.

Collectively, we have experience and humility gained by making (and surviving) every stupid decision that could be imagined. We aim to bring fresh ideas to classic web development problems.

Rather than focusing on a single web framework, the Pylons Project develops a collection of related technologies. The first package from the Pylons Project was the Pyramid web framework.

Other packages have been added to the collection over time, including higher-level components and applications. The project has become an ecosystem of well-tested, well-documented components which interoperate easily.
