Flask

Flask is a web application framework written in Python. Often referred to as a micro framework, it aims to keep the core of an application simple yet extensible. Flask is based on the Werkzeug WSGI toolkit (Web Server Gateway Interface toolkit which implements requests, response objects, and other utility functions) and Jinja2 template engine (a web templating system which combines a template with a certain data source to render dynamic web pages), both of which are Pocco projects.
