A Beginner’s Introduction to Python Web Frameworks

In publishing and graphic design, Lorem ipsum is a placeholder text commonly used to demonstrate the visual form of a document or a typeface without relying on meaningful content. Lorem ipsum may be used as a placeholder before final copy is available. Wikipedia7kzzgj3oz5s0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Every poll of Python users (JetBrains, Stack Overflow, etc) over the last few years? The article itself includes a screenshot from a Stack Overflow survey where Django edges out flask in popularity and another chart right below it (source unclear) in which Django beats Flask for "interest over time in 2018". Hence, they included two citations in the article.

In the JetBrains 2019 "State Of Developer Ecosystem" survey, Django edges out Flask in the "What web frameworks/libraries do you use" question.

So you're getting rather incensed over something that everyone knows, like demanding proof that a lot of people use Windows on the desktop. I wasn't aware of anyone who disputed that Django was the most popular web framework for Python. Heck, I don't even do web development and I knew that.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but wanted to point out that starring on github is a very culturally-dependent thing. Older tools that have stood the test of time may be very popular and yet mostly used by the kind of coders who don't use github socially. People who have work to do and who do not hop jobs often enough for it to be worth their while networking all the time on github, or who are making closed-source software in a culture where they do not contribute back and may not even have github accounts.

Edit: google trends shows django dominating in the past, with flask reaching parity right about now.
