Looks like its only dependencies are the standard library. So it appears to be a more lightweight Flask. Should've been called phial :D

Bottle came first, flask was a play on the name.

Flask was a joke it really got out of hand
Flask is a high-level wrapper around werkzeug, with some stock components like jinja2 thrown in.
Basically the Ikea of web site tools.
If that seems a hassle, go Django.
TIL. Didn't realize this wasn't a new project (but also didn't read past "WSGI").
Second line of the page:
It(bottle.py) is distributed as a single file module and has no dependencies other than the Python Standard Library.
