I have the feeling that flask has been neglected for a while. The last release 0.10.1 was on Jun 14, 2013. The mastermind behind Flask, Armin Ronacher, is more into Rust nowadays. I once started a big codebase on Flask and had to move away from it because of some really strange bugs and bad interplay of officially approved packages. The idea behind Flask is nice and there are great plugins out there like Flask-Admin but I don't trust that code base anymore. Also I found a weird bug that kept Flask from answering more than about 500 requests per second and nothing happened since then. For me it was the right decision to jump to Go.

Agree. Its been 2 years since the last flask release, 1 year since last jinja2 release, as an exception werkzeug had a release 3 months back. But, if we look at pull requests and commits, there has been continuous development in all the repos with new maintainers - https://github.com/pocoo/metaflask

Unlike fullstack frameworks, Flask being a minimalistic framework, needs very little changes to the core, as long as the extensions fill in the gaps.

But still the new commits to the core need to be packaged and released as stable features/fixes. Hope Armin and new maintainers understand importance of releases.

Anyway, great framework.
