My Python & Django Web Development adventure brought me to daily use of a very nice set of tools. As 2010 ends and I am slowing down on Web Development to concentrate on Systems & Network Administration, it's the perfect time to share my full Web Development stack. It somehow reflects my OO Development background. They might take some time to learn, but they are real productivity boosters.
Web Development
Programming Language: Python
A programming language you definitely want to look into if you haven't already.
Web Framework: Django
For building highly customizable Web Apps.
Web Design
Compass: a stylesheet authoring framework
- Build your CSS file(s) or code from your Sass code with CSS Framework support
- A real time saver, this is the drop of Ruby in my Python World.
Sass: Css like you expected they should have been, with inheritance, variables and more
CSS Framework: Blueprint, 960
No more headaches with grid, typography, browser discrepancies...
Sprites: Silksprite
A CSS Sprite Blueprint Plugin
Things left to look into: yaml
Also from the Ruby on Rails world
Documentation
Sphinx: Python documentation generator
reStructured Text: Markup language
Once mastered, this Web Development stack proves to be extremely efficient. Now what you need is an ultimate deployment hosting for your Web Apps.
