Ruby On Rails started a nice trend: post a screencast of 20 minutes or less where a (gifted) developer starts and finishes a simple development task (build a blog software, build a wiki, …). It gives a feeling of how much coding is still involved and how much the framework does for you. I collected some screencasts in the following playlist: RAD Framework Screencasts (Webjay).
These are the fancy ones:
Ruby language

- Ruby-On-Rails
- Develop blog application in 15 minutes (QuickTime MOV)
- Develop Flickr tag search application in 5 minutes (QuickTime MOV)
Python language

- Django
- Develop blog application in 7 minutes (QuickTime MOV)
- TurboGears
- Develop wiki application in 20 minutes (QuickTime MOV)
PHP language

- Qcodo (thx, Pascal!)
- Build an issue tracking system in 15 minutes (Flash Video)
- Extend the issue tracking system (Flash video)
Technorati: rad – ruby – rails – python – django – turbogears – php – qcodo – screencast

“started?” hardly — though they are very nicely done.
