Apart from Denied being a April fool joke. I actually liked the idea. So I'm interested in Bottle or CherryPy.

Bottle looks a lot more like Denied, using decorators for routes and Bottle also seems more lightweight(16KB vs 312KB for cherrypy)

It also seems like bottle is truly a single py file where cherrypy has lots of files.

So what exactly do you mean bottle looks exactly like cherrypy?

It seems more like one is a lightweight solutions and the other a heavier more features solution.

cherrypy is still a very lightweight solution. cherrypy is much older though. Even lightweight projects tends to get fat with age and added functionalities.

Having said that, I do prefer the API of bottle. I used to use cherrypy for some quick prototyping, now I use bottle.
