Ah... Frameworks, the holy grail of web development.
For many, the best solution. For me, probably too much. But why not? Well, it's a personal choice.
I'm a Full Stack developer working 12-14 hours a day, and I use Laravel all day long.
Yes, I really love Laravel. It's so elegant, so powerful, so clean. But I have a problem.
I'm unable to use 100% of its potential.
What's the issue? Simple: excess weight. Or rather, wasted functions and utilities.
"But you're using Flask on this site..."
Exactly, there's the catch.
Flask is not a framework, it's a microframework.
With Flask, you literally write everything yourself—no command-line magic like laravel new,
django-admin startproject, or rails new. You write it all: routing, configuration,
file structure, everything.
You write what you do. You write what you need. You write what you want.
Beautiful, right?
Although I love Laravel and use it for personal projects, I can't use it for my personal site because I don't need everything it offers. I don't want a bloated site with wasted functions and utilities.
In fact, in this website's manifesto, I explain another reason why I can't use a full framework.
I'm not saying you shouldn't use frameworks. Just that if you're building something you really want to control and understand completely, a microframework like Flask might be your best option.
