This is probably your best bet if you're just going to build a nice CRUD frontend for a business app, possibly with an API (via DRF). I am doing this right now on a project as it's the shortest path to a win. The API however is written in Java 8 / vertx.

I’d posit that a simple crud app would take an order of magnitude less time with Rails. I’ve been a Django developer since 0.96 and have built dozens of apps with it. After transitioning to Rails, it’s hard to justify the use unless you’re in an evironment that absolutely must use Python.
Python - Django Ruby - Rails PHP - Laravel all nice choices
I personally find that Laravel is less heavy than Django which is way less heavy than RoR. I would never use RoR for small projects.

#24Wow, I remember being curious about Django a year ago. Now it's at 2.0 ! It already felt overwhelming then, but now even more so. I can't wait to check it out more. On a sidenote, I feel bad for the developers who have to migrate to Django 2.0. Hopefully it's not too much work, I know a codebase review and full update can't be fun with the business managers and customers at your throat.
If you were already using Python 3, and your code wasn't emitting any deprecation warnings, then it's a fully backwards-compatible change and you can just bump the version number in your requirements.txt with no other changes. If your code was emitting deprecation warnings, then you have to fix them before upgrading, but this should be relatively rare and they shouldn't be that hard to fix. If you're still on Python…
That's an optimistic viewpoint.

Re: Django 2.0 released
#26Respect to the Django team that even after 12 years they have only one major version shift (which seems to only because of dropping support for Python 2) and the backwards incompatible changes are minimal.

I would rather use Flask for that.
If I were to use Flask, is there anything that I could not do but that Django could?

I wish there was a complete Clojure - ???
