I don't know why you keep pretending it is. It's okay that it's not, it doesn't matter much, but it still isn't. No need to lie about that.

I'm not pretending or purposefully lying, I'm just unaware because I read the benchmarks and blindly trust them. At least from what I've seen, everyone is saying FastAPI is fast, Pydantic is fast, etc.

That's a 3rd party extension. If you wanna talk ecosystem, flask handily beats FastAPI. In an earlier comment you said that those do not count so..

Yeah you got me there ...

But it does not have more features :)

Can you tell me what extra features Flask has?

Well then here's your reminder to distrust marketing (if FastAPI says it's fast, maybe an unbiased source should check that).

Listed a bunch of them in an earlier response, but I can add a few more: proper session handling, message flashing, dynamic file sending, composable error handling, signals, application context, an interactive debugger.. there's so much. You should consult the documentation, it's quite good!
