This would be very welcome. Last night I played with it a bit and I will need to it hooked into a WSGI app so I can just refresh a page and it will render the output via the WSGI servers instead of writing it to disk. Then I can start using it as an alternative.Lateef Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10815442680804512030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280594010967081625.post-44956320859356988282010-11-04T15:41:51.029-04:002010-11-04T15:41:51.029-04:00@chrismahan I think your right if the server is faster than your desktop and bandwidth is massive you are all set. Since Ubuntu uses debian package manager I think they are probably similar. My local stack is faster than the remote one I am running in general so I will probably keep running it locally and thus want to run linux on my laptop/desktop.Lateef Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10815442680804512030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280594010967081625.post-1358412888191781692010-11-03T01:50:15.660-04:002010-11-03T01:50:15.660-04:00I went debian stable on vps and putty/ssh into the dev machine. I use whatever on the client, since it doesn't matter. I output html, and do all the heavy lifting on the server. yes, more money monthly on the server, but cheaper machines to buy every 3 years. Also, on debian, you can run a bunch or tools together in different languages...chrismahanhttp://chrismahan.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
