Werkzeug
========
Werkzeug is a comprehensive `WSGI`_ web application library. It began as
a simple collection of various utilities for WSGI applications and has
become one of the most advanced WSGI utility libraries.
It includes:
* An interactive debugger that allows inspecting stack traces and source
code in the browser with an interactive interpreter for any frame in
the stack.
* A full-featured request object with objects to interact with headers,
query args, form data, files, and cookies.
* A response object that can wrap other WSGI applications and handle
streaming data.
* A routing system for matching URLs to endpoints and generating URLs
for endpoints, with an extensible system for capturing variables from
URLs.
* HTTP utilities to handle entity tags, cache control, dates, user
agents, cookies, files, and more.
* A threaded WSGI server for use while developing applications locally.
* A test client for simulating HTTP requests during testing without
requiring running a server.
Werkzeug is Unicode aware and doesn't enforce any dependencies. It is up
to the developer to choose a template engine, database adapter, and even
how to handle requests. It can be used to build all sorts of end user
applications such as blogs, wikis, or bulletin boards.
`Flask`_ wraps Werkzeug, using it to handle the details of WSGI while
providing more structure and patterns for defining powerful
applications.
