Overview of this book

This book will take you on a journey from learning about web development using Flask to building fully functional web applications. In the first major project, we develop a dynamic Headlines application that displays the latest news headlines along with up-to-date currency and weather information. In project two, we build a Crime Map application that is backed by a MySQL database, allowing users to submit information on and the location of crimes in order to plot danger zones and other crime trends within an area. In the final project, we combine Flask with more modern technologies, such as Twitter's Bootstrap and the NoSQL database MongoDB, to create a Waiter Caller application that allows restaurant patrons to easily call a waiter to their table. This pragmatic tutorial will keep you engaged as you learn the crux of Flask by working on challenging real-world applications.

Summary

In this chapter, we looked at how to use Bootstrap to make our application look good out of the box and to be responsive based on our user's screen size. We got a basic User Account Control system up and running, and we can register users, log users in, and log them out again.

We also spent some time looking at how to securely store passwords using cryptographic hash functions and salts.

In the next chapter, we'll build out the functionality of our application, which we discussed in the project outline at the start of this chapter. We'll also look at an easier way to create the forms that our visitors will use to interact with our application.
