I'm kind of getting back in to Flask after a flirtation with Go. I think I'll continue to use Go for APIs but for quick web apps there's nothing like Flask, and it's getting pretty decent performance now with PyPy (and PyPy with Gevent now!). I've actually been working today polishing up a skeleton app I use for my Flask apps for other devs to use -- still rewriting but I'll throw this out there since it's already pretty usable for small-to-midsized projects (MIT license): https://github.com/esbullington/flask-bootstrap

If anyone is interested in using Bootstrap along with Python as a backend, I recently published a template I've been using for web apps that integrates a Bootstrap-enabled frontend with an existing Flask template by imlucas (flask-tool), plus flask-auth authentication using SQL Alchemy. I find it useful for prototyping, and yet because it's based on Flask (very modular), it can be easily customized and scaled up: https://github.com/esbullington/flask-bootstrap It's barebones right now but I'll be making improvements and would welcome pull requests (there's a todo list).
