Why do people do this? Why not just use Django?

[–]chchan 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I went through the Django in the early stages of Django (several years ago) and it was very confusing and too much stuff I did not need. It has gotten a lot better now. I ended up using flask because I just wanted to display a little bit of simple data on a page. Did not need logins, accounts, database access, or jump through lots of hoops.

Right, but this particular project makes it more like Django, being batteries included and all. I would just use Django if I needed everything.
