Mastering Flask

Overview of this book

Starting from a simple Flask app, this book will walk through advanced topics while providing practical examples of the lessons learned. After building a simple Flask app, a proper app structure is demonstrated by transforming the app to use a Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. With a scalable structure in hand, the next chapters use Flask extensions to provide extra functionality to the app, including user login and registration, NoSQL querying, a REST API, an admin interface, and more. Next, you’ll discover how to use unit testing to take the guesswork away from making sure the code is performing as it should. The book closes with a discussion of the different platforms that are available to deploy a Flask app on, the pros and cons of each one, and how to deploy on each one.

Summary


Now that you understand testing and what it can do for your application, you can create applications that are guaranteed to be less bug-ridden. You will spend less time fixing bugs and more time adding features that are requested by your users.

In the next chapter, we will finish the book by going over ways to deploy your application into a production environment on a server.

As a final challenge to the reader, before moving onto the next chapter try to get your code coverage over 95%.
