Pylons combines the very best ideas from the worlds of Ruby, Python and Perl, providing a structured but extremely flexible Python web framework. It’s also one of the first projects to leverage the emerging WSGI standard, which allows extensive re-use and flexibility — but only if you need it. Out of the box, Pylons aims to make web development fast, flexible and easy.

2. Templating: Mako, Genshi, Jinja2, or whatever you like
3. Helpers: WebHelpers for small HTML snippets, FormAlchemy generates entire forms
4. Request Dispatching: Routes by default, or plug in your favorite

The Pylons documentation recommends a powerful templating engine (Mako) and database ORM (SQLAlchemy) to help you get started.
