TurboGears brings together four major pieces to create an easy to install, easy to use Python-based web framework. The frontend uses MochiKit JavaScript for the browser, HTML templating is covered by Kid, the controllers use CherryPy, and finally the ORM backend uses SQLObject.
The TurboGears project is focused on providing documentation and integration with these tools without losing touch with the communities that already exist around those tools.
Take a look at the 20 Minute Wiki tutorial and screencast to have a good look at what this framework can do! I can hear the voices of some cynics complain that we don’t really need an additional web application framework but I disagree: competition here is going to make for better products five years from now. Not every one of these frameworks is going to survive.
