In Lahja – A generic event bus implementation written in PythonEvery time I look at rust and posts about rust like this one. It occurs to me that "I can use this to write 'C' libraries" and a variable number of moments later, I think to myself that I'll keep Go at the bottom of my list of languages to learn to program in, after Ruby, Lisp, Fortran, COBOL, and Intercal, I'll get to Go one day, if it's still relevant to me, for now Rust + Erlang / Elixir on FreeBSD is like having my own personal unicorn.
I've been meaning to work on a proper "Erlang/OTP-ish" framework for Python for a long time, Pulsar[1] is a good start but needs more developers, and more documentation in order to grow.
It has an example that does web sockets with normal Django, no massive hacks. (Which someone more familiar with Django should really check out and talk about more widely) But no Flask example?
