Python Architectural Patterns & Best Practices
Guides Python development decisions through framework selection, asynchronous patterns, and structured project architecture.
This skill provides comprehensive architectural guidance for modern Python development, focusing on 2025 standards. It helps users navigate complex decisions such as choosing between FastAPI, Django, and Flask, determining when to implement async versus sync patterns, and establishing robust project structures for various scales. By emphasizing high-level principles and decision-making over rote code copying, it ensures that Python applications are scalable, maintainable, and correctly typed using Pydantic and native type hints.
