NFL Picks: Home Baked

A simple end-to-end flask based NFL Picks web application

After TV2 stopped their NFL Picks web services, we were left with googlesheets to do our family NFL picks league. My hate of repetitive tasks led to this Flask project. At the core, I allow users to register, store their hashed passwords, and allow them to pick the winning NFL teams in each round. Fixtures and results data comes directly from BBC.co.uk

Run Via Docker

We have a docker image ready. Building image will install packages, create database, and expose the app to port 5000

docker build -t nflpicks:latest .
docker run -d -it --name nfl -p 80:5000 nflpicks

Open localhost on your browser. NFL Pick pages awaits.
