On: Lessons learned defying Joel Spolsky with Django

[SPSteinbeck]

I also use Django without any ORM and with Jinja2 and I'm taking baby steps towards completely abandoning Django and moving to Flask. For me, the primary benefit is that Flask being so much smaller and simpler than Django means you can understand the entire codebase without an extraordinary amount of effort.

I'm curious as to why you stick with Django (other than having projects already begun relying on it)? Without the ORM and with the templates, there's is not much I get out of Django.

I'm still a relatively new developer, so it was just easier to learn.
