Complementary Packages

If you have found a package particularly helpful in your project, and you don't see it below, please consider editing this page and adding it. Thanks!

This page provides examples of general-purpose (i.e., not Falcon-specific) Python packages that complement the Falcon web framework. This list is not meant to be exhaustive, or to be interpreted as any kind of endorsement of these packages. Rather, it simply provides a starting point from which to begin your own exploration of potentially useful projects from the Python community.
