Plain
Plain is a web framework for building products with Python.
The core plain package provides the backbone of a Python web application (similar to Flask), while the additional first-party packages can power a more fully-featured database-backed app (similar to Django).
All Plain packages are designed to work together and use PEP 420 to share the plain namespace.
