Following along the Python + Flask tutorial for the DRP project

Flask Tutorial, but Newest

This is an attempt trying to follow along the tutorial for Flask for DRP, but using the newer version of flask.

I will try to follow along Ivan's structure.

Pre

Make sure you have Python3 on your machine.

Running the app

To run the app:

# pre-process
python3.8 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip && pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install python-dotenv

# configure environment variables to determine which program to run
export FLASK_APP=flask-tut/app.py 
# export FLASK_DEBUG=1 could be called here
# specify that we want to run in development mode
export FLASK_DEBUG=1
flask run

You can now browse to http://localhost:5000 and see the app live.
