Grok is a web framework based on Zope 3 technology. The project was started in 2006 by a number of Zope 3 developers.[1] Grok has since then seen regular releases. Its core technologies (Martian, grokcore.component) are also used in other Zope-based projects.[2][3][4]
The primary motive behind Grok is to make the Zope 3 technology more accessible and easier to use for newcomers and, at the same time, speed up application development, in accordance with the agile programming paradigm.[5] To achieve this, Grok uses convention-over-configuration instead of using an explicit XML based configuration language (ZCML) like Zope 3 does. Grok uses Python code for component configuration, and has many implicit defaults and conventions. Grok is similar in feel to other Python web frameworks like TurboGears, Pylons and Django. [6].
