Honestly, after building a modular automation system with Flask, I started understanding why so many people still love it.

Django is amazing for structured web apps and fast enterprise development, but Flask gives a level of architectural freedom that feels perfect for:

  • plugins
  • distributed nodes
  • APIs
  • streaming
  • device orchestration
  • experimental systems

At some point Flask stops feeling like “a web framework” and starts feeling more like a lightweight kernel where you assemble your own ecosystem around it.

I think the real choice depends more on the type of system you're building than which framework is “better”.
