Sane Stack vs Tornado: What are the differences?
Developers describe Sane Stack as "Ember on Sails". A full web development stack written in Javascript, integrating Ember.js, Sails.js and Docker. On the other hand, Tornado is detailed as "A Python web framework and asynchronous networking library, originally developed at FriendFeed". By using non-blocking network I/O, Tornado can scale to tens of thousands of open connections, making it ideal for long polling, WebSockets, and other applications that require a long-lived connection to each user.
Sane Stack and Tornado belong to "Frameworks (Full Stack)" category of the tech stack.
Sane Stack and Tornado are both open source tools. It seems that Tornado with 18K GitHub stars and 4.98K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Sane Stack with 479 GitHub stars and 53 GitHub forks.
