My Python Framework Experience
I’ve built production systems with every major Python framework:
FastAPI - My choice for new AI/ML projects
- Async-first, perfect for I/O-bound LLM calls
- Auto-generated OpenAPI documentation
- Pydantic for bulletproof validation
Django - Enterprise-grade web applications
- Django REST Framework for APIs
- Admin interface for internal tools
- Battle-tested security
Flask - Lightweight microservices
- Simple and flexible
- Great for small services
- Easy to extend
Production Python Best Practices
Every Python project I deliver follows these standards:
- Type Hints - Full typing with mypy validation
- Testing - pytest with 80%+ coverage target
- Linting - ruff, black, isort for consistency
- Async - Proper async patterns when beneficial
- Logging - Structured logging with correlation
- Error Handling - Comprehensive exception hierarchy
- Documentation - Docstrings and API docs
