About

At work I have to work with several databases at the same time, it does not allow by Django, but allows by SQLAlchemy. I started using SQLAlchemy in Django. After that i found new trouble - in Django-templates: difficult to control the whitespace, stupid tests("ifequal a b" instead a==b) etc., I replaced them by Jinja2.

I noticed that the adaptation Django to my projects take a long time. I decided to try something else. looked Pylons, in general, the project is not bad, but I do not like the fact that looks on Rails, as well as the fact that at the expense of flexibility in the choice of components - performance suffers.

Once i used Werkzeug and found it a great tool, but I don't need a lot of utilities - I need Framework. The assembly pieces of the project from utilites and libraries also takes time.

I thought that Werkzeug, Jinja2, SQLAlchemy are good tools, just need that something that connect they and wrote this.

• Werkzeug - WSGI stack
• SQLAlchemy - database stack
• Jinja2 - Template engine
