New blog post: I've mentioned before that #litestar is by far my favorite of the new generation of #python web frameworks, and I've finally found time to write about why. https://www.b-list.org/weblog/2025/aug/06/litestar/

  • Accidentally did a "delete and re-draft" on this when I meant to just edit. Ah well.

    @ubernostrum i’m not the only one who gets extremely annoyed when mechanics for growing projects from an attractive nuisance demo to realistic applications looks extremely tacked on 🥲

    @ubernostrum Very interesting! I had only used FastAPI for simple demo apps so far, but the restrictions you mention *are* things that would irritate me if I encountered them.

    @ubernostrum I find the DI subsystem a bit lacking, but otherwise it's great. A whole lot of its subsystems would do great as independent packages, like typing or dto generator

    @ubernostrum good article, thanks for writing. What makes you choose litestar over Django for projects? I'm interested in other frameworks, but I'm familiar with Django and I always think I'll need the things included so I haven't tried any of the new frameworks (I've used flask and twisted for some projects in the past).
