Overview
PythonOnWheels conventions and design
Getting started.
Install and run your first PoW server.
Let's create a simple todo app:
You can also watch the todo app intro as a 10 Minute video introduction
Step 1: Adding a todo model
Basics working with models. Building a NoSQL Todo list model.
Step 2: Adding a handler to our app
Basics working with handlers to built a todo REST API
Step 3: Adding a web frontend with scaffolding.
Basics working with views. Building a bootstrap web frontend using scaffolding.
More in depth Docs and Tutorials
These are actually a mixture of documentation and hands on tutorial. So you can execute the actual commands while reading through the sections.
Dont't panic. Since PoW does the boilerplate behind the scenes you don't have to type much. That's the idea of PythonOnWheels.
