Pylons is an open source web application framework written in Python. It makes extensive use of the WSGI standard to promote reusability and to separate functionality into distinct modules.
Pylons is the newest of the current crop of web application frameworks, which also includes Django and TurboGears. It is strongly influenced by Ruby on Rails: two of its main components, Routes and WebHelpers, are Python reimplementations of Rails features.
