This will be a high paced introduction to the TurboGears 2 web framework, including significant coverage of SQLAlchemy, genshi, and some coverage of ToscaWidgets. We will build an simple application which highlights several of the important new features of TurboGears 2. Class members will be expected to do group work, and to have a basic understanding of Python and web development fundamentals. If possible class members should go through the wiki20 online tutorial before class.
