It provides core routing, view configuration, and request/response handling through a Configurator API, letting developers define routes and map them to view functions with minimal ceremony. The framework depends on webob for HTTP abstractions, venusian for decorator-driven configuration, plaster for configuration file parsing, and zope.interface for component architecture\u2014a focused set of dependencies that keeps the core lightweight while enabling extensibility through add-ons.\n\nThe framework is mature and actively maintained, supporting modern Python versions including 3.10 through 3.14 and PyPy. It is positioned as an alternative to larger frameworks, emphasizing predictability and productivity for developers who want control over their application structure without excessive convention-driven magic.","worth_installing":"Yes. Pyramid is a mature, actively maintained framework with low install friction, permissive licensing, and no known vulnerabilities. It is suitable for developers building WSGI applications who value explicit configuration and a focused dependency set. Choose it if you prefer clarity and control over convention-driven frameworks."},"id":"pyramid","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyramid","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyramid.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyramid/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-03-11","license_spdx":"LicenseRef-Repoze-BSD-derived","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyramid","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"The Pyramid Web Framework, a Pylons project"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2502957,"position":3036,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.1"}
