Flask is a lightweight WSGI web application framework designed to help developers get started with their web applications quickly and easily with the ability to scale up to complex applications. Being a “micro” framework does not mean that your whole web application must fit into a single Python file (although it can) or that it be limited; rather it means that Flask aims to keep the core simple but extensible.

Flask offers suggestions, but it won’t make any decisions for you such as what database to use or what dependencies or project layout to choose. You get to choose the tools and libraries you want to use, so Flask can be everything you need and nothing you don’t.

Flask has become one of the most popular Python web application frameworks, and has amassed a great number of extensions provided by the community that make adding new functionality easy.
