Django is decent for POCs that need some level of security since you get authentication out of the box with no external database configuration necessary due to sqlite. Sometimes you have an endpoint that needs that due to resource usage, but the number of users is so low that setting up a complicated auth system isn’t worth it.

Minimalist frameworks are great for either very small (since they don’t need much of anything) or very large projects (since they will need a bunch of customization regardless).

In that regard, I think Django is kind of like the Wordpress of Python.
