About FastAPI

FastAPI is a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework for building APIs with Python 3.7+ based on standard Python type hints. Fast: Very high performance, on par with NodeJS and Go (thanks to Starlette and Pydantic). One of the fastest Python frameworks available. Minimize code duplication, multiple features from each parameter declaration.

Starlette
Starlette
Starlette includes an application class Starlette that nicely ties together all of its other functionality. A list of middleware to run for every request. A starlette application will always automatically include two middleware classes. ServerErrorMiddleware is added as the very outermost middleware, to handle any uncaught errors occurring anywhere in the entire stack. ExceptionMiddleware is added as the very innermost middleware, to deal with handled exception cases occurring in the routing or endpoints. Startup handler callables do not take any arguments and may be either standard functions or async functions. Shutdown handler callables do not take any arguments and may be either standard functions or async functions.

CherryPy
CherryPy
CherryPy allows developers to build web applications in much the same way they would build any other object-oriented Python program. This results in smaller source code developed in less time. CherryPy is now more than ten years old, and it has proven to be fast and reliable. It is being used in production by many sites, from the simplest to the most demanding. In order to make the most of CherryPy, you should start with the tutorials that will lead you through the most common aspects of the framework. Once done, you will probably want to browse through the basics and advanced sections that will demonstrate how to implement certain operations. Finally, you will want to carefully read the configuration and extend sections that go in-depth regarding the powerful features provided by the framework.

    "Using for years"

    Posted 2025-11-04

    Pros: Good for production and python based startup with it's speed and features.
    Would highly recommend someone who needs a python based framework.

    Cons: Takes some time in manual configuration and it's type checking may be overwhelming more new developer.

    Overall: Production ready and comes with high performance. It is really good to use this in self-project or production work where speed matters with python unlike DRF.
