The easy way to learn web frameworks

Do you know framework X and want to try framework Y? The easy way to start with a new framework is to compare it with frameworks you already know. The goal of the project is to help developers easily learn new frameworks by examples.

Notejam is a unified sample web application (more than just "Hello World") implemented using different server-side frameworks. Currently python, php, ruby and javascript frameworks are supported.

Python

• Django

... and more frameworks are coming soon.
