Klein is a micro-framework for developing production-ready web services with Python. It is 'micro' in that it has an incredibly small API similar to Bottle <https://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/index.html> and Flask <https://flask.palletsprojects.com/>. It is not 'micro' in that it depends on things outside the standard library. This is primarily because it is built on widely used and well tested components like Werkzeug <https://werkzeug.palletsprojects.com/> and Twisted <https://twisted.org>.
A Klein bottle <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleinbottle> is an example of a non-orientable surface, and a glass Klein bottle looks like a twisted bottle or twisted flask. This, of course, made it too good of a pun to pass up.
Klein's documentation can be found at Read The Docs <https://klein.readthedocs.org>_.
Example ========
This is a sample Klein application that returns 'Hello, world!', running on port `8080.
.. code-block:: python
from klein import run, route
@route('/') def home(request): return 'Hello, world!'
run("localhost", 8080)
