giotto 0.9.2

MVC Application Framework


What is Giotto?

Giotto is a python web framework. It encourages a functional style where model, view and controller code is strongly decoupled.

Key Features of Giotto include:

• “Your code calls the framework” style over “Framework calls your code” style

• Generic views, generic models and multiple pluggable controllers

• Functional CRUD patterns that do away with the need for django-style form objects.

• Automatic URL routing

• Extensible functionality

• Built in cache (supports Redis and Memcache, and an API for supporting any other engines)

• SQLAlchemy for database persistence

• Jinja2 for HTML templates (with an API for extending for other template engines)
