<h2>Morepath</h2>
<p><a href="http://morepath.readthedocs.org/en/latest/">Morepath</a> is a micro web
framework with a model-driven approach to creating web applications and web
APIs.</p>
<p>Morepath's framework philosophy is that the data models should drive the
creation via the web framework. By default the framework routes URLs directly
to model code, unlike for example Django which requires explicit URL routing
by the developer.</p>
<h2>Why is Morepath an interesting web framework?</h2>
<p>Simple <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Create,_read,_update_and_delete">CRUD web applications and APIs</a>
can be tedious to build when they are driven straight from data models without
much logic between the model and the view. </p>
<p>With the rise of front end JavaScript frameworks, many Python web frameworks
are first being used to build
<a href="/application-programming-interfaces.html">RESTful APIs</a> that return JSON
instead rendering HTML via a templating system. Morepath appears to have
been created with the RESTful API model approach in mind and cuts out the
assumption that templates will drive the user interface.</p>
<h3>Morepath resources</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<p><a href="http://blog.startifact.com/posts/on-the-morepath.html">On the Morepath</a>
is a blog post by Startifact on how they use Morepath and some of the
features of the framework.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Morepath's creator gave a
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyDKMAWPyuY">great talk on the motivation and structure for the new framework</a>
at EuroPython 2014.</p>
</li>
</ul>
