This is the reason I love python for small personal projects. I can get up and going in a heartbeat and the stdlib has so much that I'd need. If there was a Flask-style HTTP server and a more requests-like HTTP client in the stdlib, I'd be a content man. Maybe I need to suck it up, but I just find venvs and Python packaging in general annoying to deal with, especially for something small.

That said, Go has those things so it's crept in a little bit into my quick programming, but I'll always love python.
