Opinionated vs. minimal

Frameworks like Django and Rails ship with conventions for routing, models and folder structure. Minimal frameworks like Flask and Express hand you a router and let you assemble the rest.

Choosing a framework

Consider your team's language preference, the size of the ecosystem, hosting requirements and how much structure you want enforced from day one.
