How to build complex web applications having fun?
summary
A paperless sales and operations platform for a US beverage startup ships in 5 months and covers CRM, invoicing, warehouse and logistics, e‑commerce with payments, support/ticketing, and an interactive iPad machine configurator; backend is Plone + Pyramid with shared SQLAlchemy models stored in PostgreSQL, repoze/Plone SSO and Beaker sessions, deploys via buildout, and the product catalog has 150 attributes with no rendering slowdown. Team splits minimize learning risk, spending only 10% prototyping time, and the result meets the paperless goal except for legally signed contracts.
