Scientific libraries are a complex problem, writing yet another web framework isn't. Furthermore most sci/num libs are heavily linked to C/C++ and FORTRAN code, where most of the work is done.
- ZenoArrow 10y agoWeb frameworks are rarely part of standard libraries. The closest I can think of is ASP.NET for C#.
- camus2 10y agoGo has a http server, so does python and javascript.
- ZenoArrow 10y agoSo a http server is a web framework now? Okay, let's go along with this. Node.js is popular, but it's not 'standard'. It's not part of any ECMAScript standard libraries, which would be the requirement if it was to be standard. I don't know the situation with Go that well, so if it has a http library in the standard I'll take your word for it, but there do seem to be some popular non-standard http servers like Caddy. As for Python, this is probably an example of where the impact of standards is not that great. How often is the standard http server used compared to popular third party alternatives? Are there any web apps you know of that are using the standard http server in production?
