Absolutely - I have been working on a large database-centric app that uses Zope's object database as the only datastore. Unfortunately, no demo site as yet, but we are in the process of getting one organised. The combination of Zope's ODB, acquisition and dtml (Dynamic Template Markup Language), along with Python's OO support and ease of learning and a web front end make it a killer development tool - absolutely, amazingly productive. I cannot recommend it highly enough ! Robert Leftwich Neil.Smith@aucs-europe.com wrote:

I have started to read about Zope, and am in the process of setting up a server to try it out. From what I have read so far, it seems mainly targeted at displaying dynamic content. Can it also be used to generate web apps for maintaining database content? If so, can anyone recommend a site where there is a demo or tutorial or any other good information relevant to this. If it isn't suitable, can anyone recommend any other good tools (either opensource or commercial).

Thanks

Neil
