Hi David,
Take a look at deepzoom_server.py and deepzoom_multiserver.py in the
OpenSlide Python distribution. They're intended as examples rather than
complete applications, but are good enough for simple uses. For testing
purposes, you should just be able to install OpenSlide and OpenSlide
Python (see http://openslide.org/docs/windows/) and run one of those
scripts from the command line.
If you're looking to run them in production, we don't have actually have
a lot of documentation. There are a couple pages on the OpenSlide wiki
that may help you. Also, they're pretty ordinary Flask WSGI
applications, so there should be plenty of deployment advice on the web.
(I usually run WSGI apps in gunicorn behind an nginx reverse proxy.
The gunicorn documentation has reasonably good instructions for setting
this up.)
