Keenan's Flask Blog

This Flask blog was my first experimentation with web design and deployment. I originally built this webapp in December 2020, but made significant updates in the fall of 2021. The core components of the app consist of:

• Flask web server
• Dynamic HTML templates with Jinja
• Bootstrap CSS
• SQLite database with SQLAlchemy
• Password Authentication with BCrypt hashing
• Linux deployment on a Linode server
• My first experience with Git :)

I took a lot of inspiration from Corey Schafer and Tech with Tim who both helped me learn web design. I've used some of their code snippets but have tried to make the website my own as much as possible.

Installation

The app should support all versions of python. It is productionalized on Python 3.9.

pip install -r requirements.txt

python run.py

Once launched, Flask will run on local port 5000 by default.
