The Zope 2 Framework

Zope 2 is a legacy framework, which is kept alive to support existing applications built on top of it. It is no longer recommended to start new projects based on it, unless you are intimately familiar with the technology stack.

Zope 2 does combine the power of

• the Python programming language
• the ZODB object database
• a built-in security system

into a framework for building secure web solutions.

Zope 2-powered applications and portals have been developed and used for more than 10 years and have an outstanding security record.
