• Routing: Requests to function-call mapping with support for clean and dynamic URLs.
• Templates: Fast and pythonic *built-in template engine* and support for mako, jinja2 and cheetah templates.
• Utilities: Convenient access to form data, file uploads, cookies, headers and other HTTP-related metadata.
• Server: Built-in HTTP development server and support for paste, fapws3, bjoern, Google App Engine, cherrypy or any other WSGI capable HTTP server.

Example: "Hello World" in a bottle

from bottle import route, run, template

@route('/hello/<name>')
def index(name):
    return template('<b>Hello {{name}}</b>!', name=name)

run(host='localhost', port=8080)

Run this script or paste it into a Python console, then point your browser to http://localhost:8080/hello/world. That's it.
