metaplex VS solana-py

What blockchain would offer the best pre-built libraries and out of the box support to get a marketplace up and running quickly? Probably solana is my bet, based on libraries like this --> https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex

The use of the candy machine smart contract is very low cost though; it just takes some on-chain rent for data storage until the end of the mint, and you'll probably want to pay arweave storage fees in SOL, so that the NFTs themselves have adequate longevity. But when it comes down to the minting website, it's open source software that's free to use. Look for the candy-machine-ui in Metaplex's offering. If you have JavaScript experience, it's pretty straightforward to integrate into your project website.

To upload the pngs to Solana we are going to use Metaplex, the protocol that is defining the NFT standard for the network. Go to Github and clone https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex

You can deploy smart contracts if you want, but it is highly recommended to use Metaplex (Docs here) since they already deployed the infrastructure and is currently the popular NFT standard.
