  7. …literally uses package management to install and maintain bottle. Bottle has code like this - https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle/blob/master/bottle.py#L81... - which does check for external dependencies (which predicate a package manager)

  15. Bottle: https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle It's a nice, small, fast web framework. Great for building APIs. Also, it's one ~3k loc, readable file.[1] [1] https://github.com/bottlepy/bottle/blob/master/bottle.py

  18. Flask is clearly a better framework than bottle. I started with bottle and hit a bug. ( https://github.com/defnull/bottle/issues/192 ). I had to switch to flask to avoid it.
