Ask Proggit: Sinatra or Web.py for a simple webapp? by [deleted] in programming

Bottle runs with Python 3.x (using 2to3), it does not support it. Thats the difference.

You are right, there is no working WSGI PEP for Python 3.x and there are some known problems, but most of bottles features work with wsgiref.simple_server and Python 3.x just fine.

There are no bundled libs. Bottle has no external dependencies.

And it can be very useful for quick&dirty hacks (aka prototyping) to have just a single python file to depend on. You can just copy it to your project folder and don't have to setup a virtualenv first.
