Web.py has been one of my favorite web frameworks as its pretty easy to get cracking on it.

It’s super quick to install and one can come up with a prototype and rapid web services in matter of minutes.

Install on windows

If you haven’t configured easy_install on windows, then read this article.

Once easy_install has been configured believe it or not, all you have to do is open a command prompt and type

easy_install web.py

and that’s it, you are all set , to test if things work properly, create a test.py file and paste this code from Web.py web site

 import web

 urls = (
     '/(.*)', 'hello'
 )
 app = web.application(urls, globals())

 class hello:
     def GET(self, name):
         if not name:
             name = 'World'
         return 'Hello, ' + name + '!'

 if \_\_name\_\_ == "\_\_main\_\_":
     app.run()

run the code by typing python test.py 3333, then open the web browser and go to

http://localhost:3333/Einstein, on the browser you should see Hello,Einstein.

Hope this helps .
