<p>I've just watched <a class="reference" href="http://www.turbogears.org/docs/TurboTunes/index.html">TurboTunes</a> screencast ... <a class="reference" href="http://checkandshare.com/catwalk/">CatWalk</a> seems to be a good piece of code which puts <a class="reference" href="http://sqlobject.org">SQLObject</a> in all its userfriendly point-an-click glory ! It made me think about Django's CRUD admin sites in some aspects, though Django seems a bit simpler in that particular field, in terms of ergonomy..</p> <p>But one thing hitched my tiny little hair up while watching the screencast, i was quite surprised to see Kevin code so much javascript, particularly some code (like <cite>retrieveGenres()</cite> or <cite>retrieveAlbumsForArtist</cite>) which to me would be much more readable in Python in a real .py file. Ok this is a buzzy Ajax app sitting in a single template, but if it's the kind of apps we'll develop in the so called Web2.0, please spare me. Though i need to play with it anyway ;)</p> http://base-art.net/Articles/62/ 2005-11-12T21:11:03.000005+02:00 http://base-art.net/Comments/178/ Kevin Dangoor Actually, I can't claim the credit for writing that. Ronald Jaramillo wrote the tutorial. I just did the narration. <br /> <br /> If you want to dynamically update things on your pages, you basically have to use JavaScript. Luckily, MochiKit makes working with JavaScript a little more Pythonic (without breaking what JavaScript is all about). I didn't think the JavaScript in that tutorial seemed particularly hairy at all, though. Maybe I'm just acclimating :)
