Background

This tutorial presents a Pyramid application that uses technologies which will be familiar to someone with SQL database experience. It uses SQLAlchemy as a persistence mechanism and url dispatch to map URLs to code.

To code along with this tutorial, the developer will need a UNIX machine with development tools (Mac OS X with XCode, any Linux or BSD variant, etc) or a Windows system of any kind.

Warning

This tutorial has been written for Python 2. It is unlikely to work without modification under Python 3.

Have fun!
