Is Flask good for my use case to build live question and answer application?
Hi All,
I am doing side project with flask. (Initially was thinking to do with django by using django-channel but I tried some flask tutorial earlier and liked the simplicity. )
The app is:
Live question and answer application where there can be multiple simultaneous room.
Each room will have speakers (who answers questions) and moderators (who assigns questions from users) and obviously users who will be posting questions.
flask-socketio looks good for my use case but I would also like to store the questions and answers (and changes) in database(so maybe async calls to store questions and answers in DB). But from question [https://www.reddit.com/r/flask/comments/c7myty/async\_and\_await\_with\_flask/](https://www.reddit.com/r/flask/comments/c7myty/async_and_await_with_flask/) people are saying flask is not designed for IO. So should I rethink of using flask? As I am keeping scalability in mind, like will the DB calls be bottleneck if I have 1000 concurrent users?
