Ok, so after looking at all the ways to cheat and just make my app 'happen,' I gave up and yet again decided to do things the 'hard' incremental way by actually learning Flask.

So far so good:  The Flask Megatutorial is very clear and logical.  Can't say the same about the Django Girls tutorial, though it might not be their fault.

https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/the-flask-mega-tutorial-part-i-hello-world

Django Girls?  Yes...it came highly recommended.  But, Dave is right.  Django asks you to just believe and learn the system.  Flask, at least what I've seen so far, is a system that introduces legos that you can take or leave.  That's closer to what I think amounts to good code.

If anyone else wants to learn Flask with me, reply all.

I have played with Flask a bit every so often.  I would be interested in taking time to dive deeper.

I've given it an overview by this point, and now I'm just going to poke Flask with a stick until it give me what I want.  How's it coming along for you?

Travis -- not far.   Have looked at a few apps.   Haven't written anything significant yet.  

Heard about Zappa on the server less episode of talk python to me.   Sounds amazing.

Yes it does.  It might be overly ambitious, but I'll try it after completing my site.  The idea of spawning 'infinite' functions to scale a site on the fly is pretty compelling.
