Even if Flask was crap... it would be so well documented, I could use it.

I'm trying learn Tornado and every time I'm caught thinking: If only their docs were like pocoo..



I got started because in the Flask docs section, they had a .mobi file to download and read on my Kindle. (They also have PDF, ePub, zipped-html). I wish more projects had such excellent documentation, including a lot of the Flask extensions that I find on github.


FYI Tornado now has PDF and epub downloads available: https://readthedocs.org/projects/tornado/downloads/

Many python projects have PDF docs produced automatically by readthedocs, although they're often not easily discoverable.


Cool thanks for the heads up. Might have to check that out, since I'm still searching for how I'm going to manage my websocket connections to a server....
