Flask

`Flask <http://flask.pocoo.org/>`_ is a "microframework" for Python. Rather
than aiming to provide everything you could possibly need, Flask implements
the most commonly-used core components of a web application framework, like
URL routing, request and response objects, and templates. As a user of
Flask, it is therefore up to you to choose and integrate other components
you may need, such as database access or form generation and validation. For
many popular modules, `Extensions <http://flask.pocoo.org/extensions/>`_ may
already exist to suit your needs.

**Support** for flask can best be found in its mailing list. Just shoot an

Building an app with Flask is a lot like writing standard Python modules,
except some functions have routes attached to them. It's really beautiful.
Rather than aiming to provide everything you could possibly need, Flask
implements the most commonly-used core components of a web application
framework, like URL routing, request and response objects, and templates.
If you use Flask, it is up to you to choose other components for your
application, if any. For example, database access or form generation and
validation are not built-in functions of Flask.
This is great, because many web applications don't need those features.
For those that do, there are many
`Extensions <http://flask.pocoo.org/extensions/>`_ available that may
suit your needs. Or, you can easily use any library you want yourself!
