I think both Django and Flask are good frameworks that solve different problems. Django has a batteries included philosophy that gets you up and running quickly without ever leaving Python (as the developer). Flask is drastically less opinionated and focuses on providing you web hooks to bring your project/logic to the web letting you do whatever you need behind the scenes.
Personally, I feel like Django is great for a "traditional" and straightforward web applications and Flask is better for projects that may require a bit more flexibility both in modeling and backing services.
I think this line from the article follows this perspective:
> Before long, projects will be dealing with forms, REST endpoints and other things that are all best represented via a declarative model with types. The exact stance Django’s applications take from the beginning.
