Quart: Flask, but 3x faster

Episode #147, published Fri, Jan 19, 2018, recorded Thu, Jan 18, 2018

There has been a bunch of new Python web frameworks coming out in the past few years. Generally, these have been focused solely on Python 3 and have tried to leverage Python's new async and await features.

However, generally these frameworks have come with their own new APIs. They may be amazing but it's something new to learn and a barrier to migrating over to them.

That's why when I learned about Quart from Philip Jones, I was excited. It's an async-enabled web framework that attempts to be 100% compatible with Flask, including the extensions.
