flask versus traditional LAMP server

What are the advantages of using Flask versus installing a traditional server such as a LAMP server that includes Python? My school's web development club uses Flask because it is easier to teach to students and does not require setting up a server. However, is Flask better than using a traditional server for long term projects? Thank you.

To learn how to develop web application using Flask is much easier than learning all the LAMP approach. I've learn to use it in the RESTful way that most web applications work. You can use modwsgi to apply it in a Apache Server or you can use other deployment methods. In my opinion all those frameworks like RoR, Django, Flask, that are running away from using PHP have a good future, but I haven't implemented a big application to test it myself.

Besides, Flask has a good documentation

LAMP is apache, mysql and php. Flask is just a python web framework, no database, no server, no batteries included so in my opinion Flask vs LAMP is just comparing apples to oranges.
