Django Vs. Flask

So I'm working on a project that will put all my skills to the test. Im making my own web app that functions like a social media with direct messaging, posting pictures and videos, accounts, etc. I know HTML,CSS, and a little JS and I know python pretty well at this point.

From my understanding Flask is only backend and will be able to communicate with my databases with Peewee. Django from my understanding seems like a full stack python replacement to HTML and CSS. Am I right and which one will be best to use for such a project?
