CherryPy allows developers to build web apppcations in much the same way they would build any other object-oriented Python program. This results in smaller source code developed in less time. It is being used in many production websites.

Audience

This tutorial is primarily designed for developers who work on Python and are required to create portable database-driven web-based apppcations.

CherryPy provides the CRUD (Create, Retrieve, Update and Delete) functionapties for apppcations and helps in managing the project from anywhere using the user’s browser.

Prerequisites

To draw benefits from this tutorial, you need to have a basic knowledge of Python programming. A good understanding of Model-View-Controller and Object-Oriented Programming is also equally important. If you are not well aware of these concepts, we suggest you go through our short tutorial on Python.
