Mastering Flask

By: Jack Stouffer

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


As this chapter explained, there are many different options to hosting your application, each having their own pros and cons. Deciding on one depends on the amount of time and money you are willing to spend as well as the total number of users you expect.

Now we have reached the conclusion of the book. I hope that this book was helpful to build your understanding of Flask and how it can be used to create applications of any complexity with ease and with simple maintainability.
