Web Development Microframeworks Roundup

As I'm really into minimalism and lightweight tools I've been working with and evaluating many microframeworks for web development recently. Here are some of the more interesting frameworks across multiple languages that I've found in my searches. Sinatra is the first microframework that I've worked with and many of these others are either straight clones of Sinatra or are loosely based on Sinatra and it's underlying design impetus.

Ruby

Python

Java

PHP

Javascript

C#

Perl

Hopefully someone will find this listing of web development microframeworks useful. I searched for hours trying to find all of the options and which ones are best. Maybe this will save you some time in your search.

As a followup post I am planning on comparing/contrasting the Python frameworks.

I'm Taking a Break From Python

I have some contract work that I need to do which requires me to use Ruby and a framework called Sinatra. So far it's pretty awesome but to me seems very similar to web.py. Not sure how much longer I will continue to use it once this project is completed but there's a distinct possibility that I will keep it in my toolbox for a rainy day.
