Lucerne is a web application framework built on Clack, an HTTP server abstraction, which enables it to use any server backend supported by Clack.
Lucerne is inspired by Flask, and is designed to be small and simple: It’s easy to use, and there’s little to remember in order to use it.
This is free and open source software.
