> five years ago in Python you put together a lot of small pieces (and e.g. Turbogears was a nominal framework that was actually a lot of small libraries being composed together).
Flask is very similar, but they do plugins better - many of the plugins are just thin wrappers around the existing (good) libraries for namespace and context handling -passing the core library functionality to the user. It's also been growing in popularity (hence support and active development).
