I don't understand Brandons comment on Eclipse. I use it without the troubles he mentiones above. But I have Pydev (for Eclipse) installed in Eclipse. This works excellent.
With Pydev you can create GAE projects on the fly and deploy them in the SDK or appspot. With Pydev your first "Hello World" can run with a few clicks. When you create a new Pydev GAE project in Eclipse, it will create the app.yaml and the helloworld.py for you. And with another click (right click your project src and select Pydev: Google App run) your first Hello World will run in the SDK. Messages will show up in the Eclipse console. Besides Python, Eclipse and Pydev you only need the SDK. There is no need for the Google Plugin for Eclipse. You need this Plugin if you use Java or Java with GWT. I'am not a Notepad code purist. I'am not skilled enough, maybe already to old (almost 60) and still make a lot of clumsy mistakes. I started a year ago with Python after trying Java. The toolsets I use helped me understand the language and the API's. I also installed the Eclipse HTML and javascript toolset. For CSS I use stylizer (another excellent WYSIWYG tool). And the result : GAE Python is an excellent platform, without all the hassle. I don't "understand" why a lot of people still run there own server. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
