Quart is an async Python web application framework that reimplements Flask's API on top of asyncio and ASGI. It supports HTML templating, JSON APIs, WebSockets, and request/response streaming.

Use cases

• build an async REST API in Python
• serve websockets from a Flask-like app
• migrate a Flask app to asyncio
• render Jinja HTML templates with async views
• stream request and response data over HTTP
• build a small async web service with Flask's API

When to choose

• you know Flask and want async/await support
• you need WebSockets alongside HTTP routes
• you want a lightweight ASGI micro framework with Flask compatibility
• you want to reuse Flask extensions in an async app

When to avoid

• you need a full-featured framework with built-in ORM, auth, and admin
• you want a sync framework or minimal asyncio overhead
• your project depends on Flask extensions incompatible with async
• you prefer Django-style batteries-included development
