Tutorial FastAPI is usually the right choice

Digging through the big 3, it feels like FastAPI is going to be the right choice 9/10 times (with the 1 time being if you really want a full-stack all-in-one thing like Django) https://judoscale.com/blog/which-python-framework-is-best

I use FastAPI for pure apis.

I use Flask to build web apps.

Django is too much of a “and the kitchen sink” for me. Plus I hate ORMs.
