Flask is a Python web framework that's steadily increasing in popularity within the webdev world. After reading so many great things about Flask, I decided to try it out myself. I personally find testing out a new framework difficult, because you must find a project complex enough to reveal the framework's quirks, but not so daunting as to take the fun out of the project. Luckily, my PHP/Wordpress powered website filled this role quite nicely - the website simply consists of static content, a contact page, and a blog. If I could not convert such a simple site over to Flask, I would immediately know that Flask and I would not make a good team.
