I always just set up a project myself using Werkzeug, in the era of WSGI, almost all of the heavy lifting for web apps is done automatically and outside of your application anyway.
- NhanH 11y agoThis is the first time I've seen Flask being called crappy. Do you mind elaborate why?

- nealrs 11y agoFlask isn't crappy. It's an excellent way for learners & aspiring polyglots (like me) to build a functional app and learn about routing. And it's got a bazillion useful extensions. Is it great for a production environment? No clue. Same with Tornado. But it's definitely a solid pick.

Tornado is significantly different from other Python frameworks like Django and Flask, but IMHO it is under appreciated.
