TinCan is a Python web framework, based on the `Bottle <http://bottlepy.org/>`_ micro-framework and
the `Chameleon <https://bottlepy.org/>`_ templating engine. TinCan is based on the "code-behind"
paradigm popularized by ASP.Net, convention over configuration, and clear
separation of presentation and back-end logic.
