Yet, it&amp;#x27;s async and a joy to write. You should check it out if you have not. I would like to hear more from others about Tornado vs other Python frameworks as well.&lt;p&gt;[0]: &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.tornadoweb.org&amp;#x2F;en&amp;#x2F;stable&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.tornadoweb.org&amp;#x2F;en&amp;#x2F;stable&amp;#x2F;&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>
