flask-cookiecutter

A template for flask applications using cookiecutter

Prerequisites

1. python 3

How to use it

Install cookiecutter (using pipx would be a fabulous idea)

pipx install cookiecutter

Run:

You will be prompted to answer some basic questions about your application, including the name. The cookiecutter will create a directory for your app (named after the name you answered.)

Create a virtualenv and activate it, then:

make init

Run the app

flask run

and have a look at http://localhost:5050
