I’m facing developing a new web app in the future and I’m wondering how to decide what framework to use. I’ve settled on Python as my language of choice. But there are still may frameworks to choose from! More generally how do you choose between different similar technologies that are still in the works as the latest round of web frameworks are? I’m curious what your process is for deciding on technologies you’ve never used.

Recognize that no choice is perfect — or even very good.
No matter what you choose, someone will have a suggestion that — they claim — is better.
No matter what you choose, some part of your tech. stack will fail to live up to your expectations.
The most important thing is ‘shared nothing’ so that the components can be replaced.
After that, the next most important thing is automatically-generated features to reduce or prevent programming.
Look at Django. Lots of automatic admin features make life very pleasant.
