A better version of the first question is, are the libraries you need, and will ever need in the lifetime of this application, available in python 3? If you can't predict the answer to this, it's risky to go with Python 3.
- dragonwriter 12y agoThis seems to presume that no libraries that you might ever need are exclusively Python 3 -- if they are, then both choices have risks. Sure, there's probably more existing Python 2-only libraries than Python 3-only ones, but if the challenge is to predict not only the libraries you need now, but the libraries you "will ever need in the lifetime of this application"...
