Flask framework for a small and medium size projects

Question

I'm about to try Flask framework and look if it fits my needs. I worked with Django, it is cool, but I want to try Flask. I have one small and maybe one medium-sized project and wanted to ask if Flask is the right framework to use for those?

Do you guys have experience by running medium-sized (or even large-scale) projects with Flask? Would be nice to hear facts and not just things like "I like Django because it is cool" or "I like Flask just because it is small" :)

Anyway, I will try to play with it, just from curiosity.

Answer 1

Flask works fine for larger applications, too.

Have a look at the "Larger Applications" page of the flask docs; it has some suggestions on how to keep your code properly structured.

If you need e.g. an ORM you can use Flask-SQLAlchemy which nicely integrates SA into your Flask environment.
