Flask is a light, yet powerful Python web framework perfect for quickly building smaller web applications. It's a "micro-framework" that's easy to learn and simple to use, so it's perfect for those new to web development as well as those looking to rapidly develop a web application.

How developers use ExpressJS vs Flask vs Guzzle

Cloudcraft uses ExpressJS
Express.js is the workhorse of the Cloudcraft.co backend. It's not the most exciting part of a stack, but it works, is very well documented, and you can find a plugin for almost everything you could possibly want. We also carefully evaluated Koa.js, but decided not to go down this route: fewer plugins, less documentation & answers online. I'm also not personally convinced by the generators yield syntax at all. ES7 async functions looks like a much better bet, and with Promises and Babel I can have that already today.

v0lkan uses ExpressJS
I use express.js for nightly.zerotoherojs.com and dojo.zerotoherojs.com web apps.
Express is well-known, lightweight, works out-of-the-box, has great middleware support and has minimal learning curve.
It is the best framework to start developing a general Node.js web app.

jacklittleton uses Flask
I use Flask for times when I need to create a REST API that interfaces with other Python code, or there is no specific reason why I'd want to use Node.JS. I prefer Flask because of its small learning curve, allowing me to get started coding as quickly as possible

kfancy uses ExpressJS
I'm fluent in ExpressJS, but over the past two years I have moved to HapiJS. Similar results, but I find Hapi to be more full-featured towards my app, api and service needs. I can operate confidently in both.
