• Online Video Courses at Talk Python Training

• Web Applications with Python and the PyramidFramework -In this Web Applications with Python and the Pyramid Framework trainingcourse, expert author Paul Everitt will teach you about the features neededfor Python web development, as well as Pyramid's unique features. Thiscourse is designed for users that already have a basic knowledge of Python.

  You will start by learning about single file web apps, templating, andmultiple routes and views. From there, Paul will teach you about MyAppPython package, views and routes, and templating and static assets. Thisvideo tutorial also covers forms, databases, and sessions, authenticationand authorization, and JSON. Finally, you will learn about extensibility,including custom configuration settings, extending and overriding, andcustom view predicates.

  Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will havegained a basic understanding of the features needed for Python webdevelopment and the features unique to Pyramid.
