🆚 Flask vs. Laravel

Flask is a lightweight framework for building web applications in Python.

It provides a minimal core that includes URL routing, request/response handling, a built-in development server and debugger, Jinja2 as templating engine, support for RESTful APIs, and the ability to extend functionality via numerous third-party libraries.

Laravel is an open-source PHP backend framework that provides all features needed to build modern web applications such as routing, input validation, caching, queues, and file storage.

It includes an expressive templating engine, a database ORM with migrations and seeding, built-in user authentication and authorization, a command-line interface, and a unified API for various cache backends.
