19.1. Toolbox Overview

The TurboGears Toolbox is started with the tg-admin toolbox command. Your browser should automatically pop up when you start the Toolbox, but if it doesn't you should still be able to browse to http://localhost:7654, where you'll see a web page with links for each of the tools in the toolbox (as seen in Figure 19.1).

Each of the components in the Toolbox is also a TurboGears application, so you can also look at them as examples of how TurboGears applications are built.

Because there isn't anything in TurboGears that can't be done in code or from the command line, the use of the Toolbox is entirely optional.
