I started learning Python using the IronPython implementation. I'd like to do some web development now. I'm looking for a python web development framework that works on the Microsoft technology stack (IIS + MS SQL Server). Django looks like an interesting framework but based on what I have read, getting it to work on the Microsoft technology stack seems very hard or not possible.
I want to lean a web framework that leverages python strengths, so ASP.NET is not an option here.
The reasons why I want to do Python on full Microsoft stack are:
Any recommendations?
Python-Django Stack They generally combine it with the Apache web server, MySQL, and the Django framework for server-side development.
Working with the full MS stack will be hard as not many FLOSS frameworks aim there. You'll have better luck with a WAMP (Windows/Apache/MySQL-PostgreSQL/Python) approach.
That being said, Django works on Windows, and even can be made to work under IIS by using PyISAPIe and MS SQL Server support.
TurboGears can also be installed on Windows, and has MS SQL Server support through its ORM backends.
Trying to use -AMP under Windows can be an exercise in masochism sometimes. It can be done, but using these frameworks under Linux/BSD is much much easier and enjoyable. You should definitely try it.
