Why do ppl like Django and Flask so much? They're heavy awkward dinosaurs with nasty codebases perpetuating really bad coding patterns (globals?! (multiple)inheritance-till-your-head-spins?! - that's what that soup of whateverMixins is, let's stop pretending... serializers that DE-serialize and different stuff depending on situation?! ...stuff you couldn't add type annotations too because the types would depend of calling contexts far away etc. etc. etc.).

If you code Python, at least take some time to read more modern code: see responder (not my favorite but cool), fastapi, starlette, asyncio http examples etc... Or see older examples (as old as Django) like web.py.
