SOME CONTEXT
django is a Python-based free and open-source web framework, which follows the model-template-view (MTV) architectural pattern. It eases the creation of complex, database-driven websites.
Flask is a Python microframework based in Werkzeug, Jinja 2 and the bestest intentions. With Flask we can build Web & Restful apps in an extremely simple way.
"Microframework"
DJANGO ARCHITECTURE
Pros!
- Learning curve ✅
- "production ready" ✅
- Routing ✅
- Supports sessions & cookies
- Extensible ✅
- No "baked in" ORM & Admin ✅
- Excellent documentation ✅
Cons
- None
- Complex for big apps
- Small community in comparison to django
So... 🤔
- Is Flask for small projects only?
- Why is it called a micro framework?
- Can it do everything Django does?
- When should i use Flask instead of Django?

IN CONCLUSION
- Awesome option if you're starting you journey with Python, and if not, it is a great option as well! 😜
- Not limited to small projects only.
- Add or take at will to meet your needs!
- Once you gain proficiency with Flask, moving to Django will be very easy...
- ... Or maybe you won't need to move at all!
MICRO FRAMEWORK?
