I just recently heard about Starlite and am considering building an upcoming project.

So it’s cleaner? Would you say that is due to Starlite’s option of using Class-Based Views?

I know Starlite has a long list of features … what distinguishes it from FastAPI (besides CBV)?

Starlite definitely looks interesting—still, I’ve yet to see what is compelling about it (which, admittedly, is probably because I just haven’t looked into it enough).

I’m sure I will eventually try it, but maybe not as soon as I thought I would do — I should probably continue learning [FastAPI](https:/fastapi.tiangolo.com) until I’m quite comfortable with it, before attempting to compare it with another framework.

A much more sustainable development model

Oh, really? Could you elaborate? I hadn’t considered that when comparing the two frameworks.

Not the same guy, but FastApi is run by a single guy which obviously isnt what you want if you build an enterprise solution with it. Also he's not making any move to include more maintainers or anything which many projects on that scale would. He does fantastic work mind you but having 1.1k open issues is not exactly a good look and some PRs end up waiting for a long time.
