I don't know what exactly you mean with "wanted to not build it all
myself", but Flask is great with SQLAlchemy. You have the Flask-SQLAlchemy
extension and it has a lot of other integrations, like Flask-Admin.

You don't have to fear flask to bigger projects. To be honest, I prefer it
instead of Django because I can grow the project the way I want, without
framework strings.
