  • Is something wrong with FastAPI?

    Sanic is very very popular with 16.6k stars, 1.5k forks, opencollective sponsors and a very active github. Falcon is more popular than japronto with 8.9k stars, 898 forks, opencollective sponsors and a very active github too. Despite Japronto been keeped as first place by TechEmPower, Falcon is a way better solution in general with performance similar to fastify an very fast node.js framework that hits 575k requests per second in this benchmark.

  • 2 Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Python Framework
    5 projects | dev.to | 7 Sep 2021
    To help with the above two cases I would consider using a microframework, and the Python community provides many solutions. In my professional career I’ve had the opportunity to work with three very good alternatives to Django: Flask, Falcon, and Fast API. Flask is designed to be easy to use and extend. It follows the principles of minimalism and gives more control over the app. Choosing it, developers can use multiple types of databases, which is not easy to do in Django. We can also plug in our favorite ORM and use it without any risk of unpredictable app behavior. In contrast to Django, it’s easy to integrate NoSQL databases with Flask.
  • Do you know any Python projects on Github that are examples of best practices and good architecture?

    This may not be exactly what you asked for but I found contributing to open source projects really exposed me to different approaches I never would have considered and may not have fully grasped had I not had to actually dive into the code to solve an issue. Falcon is a great place to start and the guys are super friendly there.
