The Python micro framework for building web applications

The minimalist Python web framework: a router, a template engine and nothing you don't need.

Armin Ronacher's micro-framework: routing, templating (Jinja2) and WSGI, everything else is extensions. Its 2024 v3 and the surrounding ecosystem (SQLAlchemy, Marshmallow) keep it relevant for services, prototypes and teaching. When Django is too much, Flask is exactly enough.

Who it's for

Python developers who want a microframework: start tiny, add only the extensions the project needs.
