What Python/IronPython web development framework work on the Microsoft technology stack?

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I started learning Python using the IronPython implementation. I'd like to do some web development now. I'm looking for a python web development framework that works on the Microsoft technology stack (IIS + MS SQL Server). Django looks like an interesting framework but based on what I have read, getting it to work on the Microsoft technology stack seems very hard or not possible.

I want to lean a web framework that leverages python strengths, so ASP.NET is not an option here.

The reasons why I want to do Python on full Microsoft stack are:

• We are a .Net shop and our production servers run the full Microsoft stack
• With IronPython, I'll be able to interop with our product's existing .Net Libraries
• Our existing database runs in SQL Server and I want to develop an app that queries that database
• Deploying my Python projects to our server will not be allowed if I have to install another web server

Any recommendations?
