I have been playing with python and different web frameworks. I started with Django, but am not in so deep that I am entrenched. I really quite like python but have not found that "perfect" web solution.

My qualifications of perfect would be:

  • simple to learn/code
  • simple to host (my webhost, Site5, isn't exactly python-friendly)
  • widely supported/used

Web2Py seems like it might fit. Their case against simplicity is solid and it seems pretty simple to fire up an webserver (though the quest for a python-friendly web host continues). And Web2Py does not seem to be widely used. But why not?

Tangents:
Which framework do you use and why?
Who do you use for your python web hosting?

    Perhaps this was true when the question was asked. I am not sure this is true any longer true. Django and Zope is still more widely adopted but they had about 4-5 years of head start. web2py is a solid third and growing. – mdipierro Sep 06 '10 at 17:58

Django is more widely used, because Django is (already) more widely used.
