Overview
Bottle is a micro web-framework for Python based on WSGI. It's designed to be fast, simple, and lightweight, distributed as a single file module with no dependencies beyond the Python Standard Library. It offers request routing to function calls with support for dynamic URLs, a fast built-in template engine (and support for Mako, Jinja2, and Cheetah), and convenient utilities for handling form data, file uploads, cookies, headers, and other HTTP features. It includes a built-in HTTP development server and supports various WSGI servers like Gunicorn and Paste. Bottle emphasizes ease of use and rapid development, making it suitable for small to medium-sized web applications, prototyping, and learning web development concepts.
