flask syntax code example

Example 1: simple flask app

# Extremely simple flask application, will display 'Hello World!' on the screen when you run it
# Access it by running it, then going to whatever port its running on (It'll say which port it's running on).
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
    return 'Hello, World!'

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()

Example 2: python flask

from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
  return "Hello world!" #if you want to render a .html file, 
                        # import render_template from flask and use 
                        #render_template("index.html") here.

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.debug = True
    app.run() #go to http://localhost:5000/ to view the page.
