The attitude displayed in the opening of the blog post is unproductive. Chalice is deliberately minimalistic, opinionated, and tightly integrated with botocore on Python. It's also licensed under the Apache license. Zappa is a more general purpose framework, fulfilling a more general set of needs. When Lambda-API Gateway first came out, I spent a long time figuring out how to make things work, and I ended up with many of the same patterns that the author accuses Chalice of stealing - before looking at Zappa, and long before Chalice came out. If anything, both Zappa and Chalice are imitating (not "ripping off") Flask. The rest of the post contains an informative technical comparison, and I appreciate Zappa for pioneering the integration of some very useful features, so it's too bad that the opening really discredits it. I've had my fair share of PRs ignored by Amazon teams, so I can relate to the feeling that they're not engaged with the community, but it's better to respond with a constructive attitude.
