Author here. The Pirate/Navy title is a metaphor to say Django is rigid and Flask is flexible. You have to do things the Django way. With Flask, you can customize it easily.
P.S. My cofounder Priyanka said the Pirate Navy line thing when reading the post, and I thought it was an awesome title :)
- pritianka 12y agoHehe, yes I remember saying it. Wasn't meant to be literal :-)
- collyw 12y agoWhile I agree with this to an extent (I use Django on a daily basis) Django is pretty flexible. If your app falls outside of a certain set of assumptions I would go for Flask (which I considered for a project we are working with). I would say that Flask apps need to be doing something special before Django is not considered.
