The title led me to think it would talk about stuff like south [the database migration tool], solr [the search server], celery [the asynchronous job queue], fabric [a deployment tool replacing "ssh into server to do stuff"].

But alas that was too much to expect. It introduces the basic building blocks of the web, HTML, CSS, javascript and some server scripting languages like PHP, python and ruby, plus MySQL. It also talks about ASP.NET/C# web development but does not go into details about microsoft's MVC framework, or LINQ, either.

Maybe okay for an introduction for someone who is new to web development, I guess. Would've liked to see more about tools used in real web development, though.

Agree.

But I don't think tools can be categorized as "real" web development. Someone who create a static site compiler in bash script is doing as real web development as someone working with all the cool tools on the block.

It it has anything to do with HTTP/browser/webserver, it is as "real" as it gets. Everything else is a tool for a job nothing real or unreal about it.

PS: This should not have been on the HN front page.

ya this is an article written for introducing novices to web-develoment and how its done.

Dumped straight from http://www.quora.com/Id-like-to-learn-web-related-programmin...

perhaps a little basic for people reading HN.
