Resources for developing Python and Google App Engine

I would like to ask about some sources for developing applications with Python and Google App Engine.

For example, some controls to generate automatically pages with the insert/update/delete of a database table, or any other useful resources are welcome.

Thank you!

The Python community tends to look askance at code generation; so, @Hoang, if you think code generation is THE way to go, I suggest you try just about any other language BUT Python.

@Dominic has already suggested some excellent resources, I could point you to more (App Engine Fan, App Engine Utilities, etc, etc) but they're all based on the Pythonic mindset: understand what you need and what you could be doing, wrap as much of it as feasible into reusable components, reuse those components from your own sources.

You want magic, wizards and code generation that basically excused you (in theory) from STUDYING and UNDERSTANDING: give up on Python, it's SO not the language for that,

The google app engine "Getting Started" tutorial is very good. The django documentation is also really detailed. Take a look at GoogleIO on youtube and watch some of the tutorials.
