Flask is about the most beautiful Python code you can write. Check out any other Python framework and they may have a decent api, but on the inside it is messy and confusing. Reading Flask source code on the other hand is a joy. There's no crazy stuff and few convoluted pieces + lots of comments so it is really easy to hack something if you must. Any Python coder who wants to improve their game definitely should stud…

For what it's worth, the internals of Bottle are very clean (and extremely simple - the entire library/framework is just one file).

I know I'm biased on that, but if the internals of Bottle are clean it's doing something wrong :) WSGI/HTTP are incredible complex and in fact, too complex to fit into a single Python file. There is a good reason for why Werkzeug (which Flask is based on) is 15000 lines of code.

Terrific news! Many thanks to all who made it possible. https://python3wos.appspot.com/ needs an update. :)

It's in a single file which happens to be a little under 3500 lines long ...
