web2py is an open source framework for agile development of secure database driven web applications. At its core it is similar to Django and Ruby on Rails but it comes with a web based interface that makes life easier to entry level developers. web2py includes a very fast Object Relational Mapper, a pure Python based template language, an extensive set of self-aware web helpers, and a web based database administrative interface. web2py's ORM dynamically generates SQL for many dialects including MySql, PostgreSql, Oracle and the Google Query Language.
