What do you like best about Flask?

It is a lightweight python web framework.

It allows you the freedom to write algorithms without you having to follow any strict rules.

It broadens your understanding of server-side development.

It is easy to set up.

Merging it with front-end languages is very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Flask:

Using Flask is very good but like any other technology, you need to have your use case then see if Flask is good to use. Use it for API, Blog Sites, Data Visualisation, and User Analytics Dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Flask to create blog sites, API, and sites that accept fewer requests.

With blog sites, it gives the benefits of using blueprints. This makes your site maintainable and scalable.

Flask is small as easier to get started with and set up compared to Django. The code to set up a web server and api endpoints is so small compared to the code to set up similar results in Django.

What do you like best about Flask?

By far my favorite part of using Flask is how quickly you can set up a full web application in just a few seconds with essentially zero overhead or added libraries. A hello world can be written in just a few lines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flask?

Often I find myself writing duplicate methods to transfer data back and forth between the client (javascript) and the server (python). I worry about security implications here as the data is not usually encrypted. I with there was a more streamlined approach for the backend to communicate with the frontend client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm using Python's Flask microframework for a small web portal for a startup. It's a pretty basic application that has an authentication component along with a handful of database operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
