▶ About this video:
The Python Developer Survey (2019) tells that Django and Flask are the most well-known frameworks among developers. You can hardly go wrong with choosing one of these frameworks to work with a new web app. While picking which one will work best for you and your goals, there are several clear differences to keep in mind.

Django has been around for longer – the first edition was in 2005, while Flask was introduced in 2010.

    Good video but with only one bad information. Flask is not only good for minimalist sites, Flask can be easily structured for large sites. There is a misunderstanding with the name microframework, Flask is like a project with lego blocks and your project will have what it needs and not everything it doesn't need like Django.

    Flask is more efficient on a long distance for web apps supported by company's own dev teams. Django is more efficient for common featured web apps with short deadlines.

    Awesome Video. I have used Flask for most of my python projects

    I don't agree here. I have built large applications with flask. To me, It is tough to compare flask with django. Django is an out-of-the-box solution that pretty much has many popular tools to get descent application going quickly without having to tinker with settings and libraries. However, with having an out-of-the-box setup, there are presets, and with Flask It is much more modular than django so you can completely customize your application to suit your needs. A flask application; if well built can be much more robust than an out of the box django application. The difference is, the learning curve is much steeper with flask when building full fledged applications. Also, flask is much easier to biuld API's in and you can deploy them much quicker than django,

    as a beginner i think flask is better cuz I personally think reddit, Pinterest has alot of features and cool interface as compare to Spotify,instagram
  • Flask has no problem managing RDBMS, it is not exclusive to NOSQL

    For me, Flask wins just because of one reason and that is the ease with which we can create microservice applications. And I don't agree that flask can only be used to create minimilistic web apps.

    While Flask is used for smaller but still big projects Django is used by many big tech companies, even youtube, and once you know the it its pretty easy
