Bottle VS web2py

Bottle.py: uber-fast and simple python web microframework, about 3x faster, saner, and more memory-efficient than Flask in my experience: https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle

Fossil: distributed version control and much more in a single executable, from the creators of SQLite: https://fossil-scm.org/

This walkthrough I am using as learning material says the vulnerable code (in the first snippet below, from github here: https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle/issues/900), is replicated in the webpage in the second snippet below and so I know this app is vulnerable to the exploit shown in highlighted in the github link.

Here's a web framework in a single file: bottle.py

I don't do much development for microcontrollers or limited resource environments, but it's nice to have a low boilerplate tool for throwing together quick web apps. I've used Bottle for that in the past. It looks like this might have more of an API focus, rather than templates or static pages? Very cool, will check it out.

However much makes sense for your project. bottle.py is a web framework in a single file, and it's about 4500 lines of code. Should you do the same thing? Probably not. But you can.

There was a time, I want to start a new project and have to choose what technologies to use for the frontend and backend parts as well. Research gets me to Aqueduct and Shelf, both of them weren't looking actively developing and supported and that leads me to the idea to make my own small micro-framework like Echo for Golang or Bottle for Python. And it was easy to decide: I've had time and motivation :)

It was developed by Marcel Hellkamp and Bottle was initially released on July 1 2009 it is cross-platform and open-source. its Github repository is https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle. It is integrated with Python, Vue JS, and Jinja.

For reference, YouTube runs on Python[1,2,3]:

> 1. Python and Django: YouTube’s backend is predominantly written in Python, offering a balance of performance and readability.

> 2. Google Cloud Platform...

> 3. Java and C++: YouTube also utilizes Java and C++ for specific backend services, as they provide better performance for certain tasks.

A long time ago, I looked into these Python frameworks:

- https://kivy.org/

At a previous job, not as a software developer, myself and a few others endeavoured to build a CRM for the church I worked at. We opted for web2py simply because it was the thing I had first learned after learning Python and had found incredible power in building something that people could use.

Its Github repository https://github.com/web2py/web2py although it was designed to reduce web development tasks such as developing web forms from starting and working like that. It is cross-platform means that you can run it on Windows, Linux, and other operating systems which can run on your computer.

Once mastered, frameworks like Django, Flask, Web2Py, and Bottle can significantly ease the life of a Python developer. Moreover, Python frameworks allow you to build an application prototype fast, as it essentially eliminates the need for repetitive input code.
