  Funny -- I'm going the opposite direction. I did a few MVPs last year on Laravel which have since moved to Django or Flask. There is no admin generator I've found that compares to Django. And it is that time savings that is crucial in the beginning. It is shaping up to look like this: Django and all the goodies on the backend (db migrations, admin generator, auth, rest-framwork) Flask + SQLAlchemy OR Django-rest-framwork on the Frontend. Sure, we might double-up on some models (Django models and SQLAlchemy models), but this works really really well. I would argue that this is even better than using a BaaS for prototyping.
