Quixote (web framework)

<p>Quixote is a <a href="/facts/Software_framework/EWasA8sG">software framework</a> for developing <a href="/facts/Web_application/BLkF3BIN">web applications</a> in <a href="/facts/Python_/YbuGqofa">Python</a>. Quixote "is based on a simple, flexible design, making it possible to write applications quickly and to benefit from the wide range of available third-party Python <a href="/facts/Modularity_(programming)/sNoqKvRD">modules</a>".
</p><p>A Quixote application is typically a Python package, a collection of modules grouped into a single <a href="/facts/Directory_(file_systems)/VLtLcEXY">directory tree</a>. Quixote then maps a <a href="/facts/Uniform_Resource_Locator/pPD5g7Wq">URL</a> to a <a href="/facts/Subroutine/9vFJrg0A">function</a> or <a href="/facts/Method_(computer_science)/8kAXxVYs">method</a> inside the Python package; the function is then called with the contents of the <a href="/facts/HTTP/TWtvf7JD">HTTP</a> request, and the results are returned to the <a href="/facts/Client_(computing)/u0wlVsWI">client</a>.
