Web development noobs questions
#1
A few years ago I started with python, but only with client applications.
Now, I want to start with web apps.

I have a lot of knowledge in web-scrapping with the requests module. So I want to continue with that, but this time through a web app.
What I want is to return a response as JSON to the user.

Because I do not have any experience with python web development I need help to start.
First question, what framework to use: Django, Flask, or some other?
Are there some free web pages with those frameworks, or maybe is better to install framework locally (for training purposes)?
I already tried with pythonanywhere, but it seems they do not allow requests module to free users.

Thx
