edbob 0.1a19

Pythonic Software Framework

edbob is a Pythonic software framework, released under the GNU Affero General Public License.

It aims to be “environment-neutral” in that it can assist with development for console, web, or GUI applications. Pay only for what you eat; however all of its functionality combined may be considered a “full stack” of sorts.

For more information, please see edbob.org or send email to Lance Edgar.

$ pip install edbob
