The Link To WebApp3 NonPublic Repository

[Marcus Eagan]

Hello there, 

I've recently looked into using webapp3 with a few wishes: that there is a lightweight framework  for working with Google App Engine that evolved from WebApp2, and that the next generation framework supports python 3. The repository listed at this website does not appear to exist, perhaps because it is private: https://webapp2.readthedocs.io/features.html

This sort of information is critical for developers looking to adopt the platform or increase our existing footprint.

Furthermore, links to documentation for both WebApp2 and WebApp3 are down. Please advise on what I can do about the repository and what's going on with the documentation.

Thanks,

Marcus

App Engine Python container image only supports the frameworks mentioned here [1]. A feature request [2] was filed with the App Engine engineering team. This will be evaluated and possibly implemented in the future with the update released in the public documents, however, there is no ETA at this moment. Check the webapp2 documents here [3].

Yeah, it seems like diogoa said that they are using the frameworks mentioned in this page. No mentioning of Webapp3...

As mentioned on the page..

This quickstart demonstrates a simple Python app written with the Flask web framework that can be deployed to App Engine. Although this sample uses Flask, you can use any web framework that satisfies the requirements above. Alternative frameworks include Django, Pyramid, Bottle, and web.py.

webapp2 did have some advantages like using deferred library easily for example, other frameworks may have other advantages though, specially with AppEngine moving to support Python3
