Bottle.py: uber-fast and simple python web microframework, about 3x faster, saner, and more memory-efficient than Flask in my experience: https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle

Fossil: distributed version control and much more in a single executable, from the creators of SQLite: https://fossil-scm.org/



I still use Bottle for all my starter projects. It’s just unmatched in terms of bang for the buck.


In the same vein, I'd name Tornado (www.tornadoweb.org). Also rather small and comprehensible, but with full async support that's evolved extremely nicely. Generally I love how well-designed and maintained it is.
