   OK folks, I need some help from the #Python #OpenSource community.

   I need a code review on this: https://github.com/twisted/klein/pull/594

   You do not need to have any special qualifications other than a general interest in web frameworks. Experience with Twisted would be helpful but not required.

   Some background… 🧵

     The PR includes a bunch of links to the PR staging build of the readthedocs documentation, pointing to the relevant pages for handling form inputs, which depends on handling sessions and authentication as well.

     Today, I've unvendored the half-finished version of https://dbxs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ and made it a dependency.

     You are welcome to review other bits of the code as they interest you, but the main "approve" stamp I'm looking for before I land & release this is someone to read the documentation and say "yes, this basically makes sense". Extra bonus points if you actually follow the tutorial.

     Also hey @davidism while I have _zero_ expectation that you would actually want to do the review part of this yourself, I thought you might like to know that That One Other Thing That Uses Werkzeug might actually become more generally viable

     The Twisted team doesn't have a ton of interest in the user-facing bits of our "microframework", Klein, which is a sort of Flask-alike for Twisted. Flask with Twisted characteristics, if you will.

     There isn't a ton of interest from outside the community either, as the framework is a bit of an incomplete shell, having *parts* of form-handling and session-management but requiring you to build the other parts yourself from a barely-documented construction kit.

     This is a MASSIVE, years-old PR that adds a ton of documentation for how you can actually USE the framework, including adding enough of a built-in database adapter for the basics of session and user management that you can see a working example without intuiting a bunch of interface implementations from scratch.
