Richard Jones did a nice presentation about this in August 2011, comparing 10 Python frameworks along a lot of useful metrics (perf, simplicity, size, documentation, etc) by developing the same "hello world"-ish app in each one. He even scored them at the end.
The slides are at http://www.slideshare.net/r1chardj0n3s/web-microframework-battle http://www.slideshare.net/r1chardj0n3s/web-microframework-ba... -- they don't seem to be loading inline now but the PDF download still works. Video of the talk is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYjPIMe0BhA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYjPIMe0BhA .
Spoiler alert: the winner was bottle.py, by a nose.
- dagw 15y agoIt's worth noting that he's mainly concerned with publishing existing python apps he's already written as simple web services, not writing a complete web site from scratch. If you just look at the slides it's easy to miss this. This doesn't invalidate anything he says as such, but it's worth keeping this in mind if you're planning on doing a more complete web site.
- zwass 15y agoDespite Jones' use of standardized metrics, in real world use of three of these frameworks I found that his scores indicated little about how effectively each performed.
