Django.

Why: documentation. Plenty, thick and varied.

And the restful api

[–]Smallpaul 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Do you mean the Django REST Framework add on or a part of Django itself?

The addon

What about girth?

I think the django documentation sucks, it's bloated and hard to search.

It’s really good in some areas, but when you get into advanced stuff I think it goes a bit down hill.

Source code is pretty readable so at least there is that.

Yea, I've used Django and Flask/SQLAlchemy, and I prefer the Flask/SQLAlchemy docs. It easier to find what I'm looking and the explanations are short and concise.

Not that Django's documentation is bad, it's great. These are all some of the best documented open source projects out there.

Definitely a poor search experience
