python flask demo 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 basic flask app

# Imports necessary libraries
from flask import Flask 
# Define the app
app = Flask(__name__)

# Get a welcoming message once you start the server.
@app.route('/')
def home():
    return 'Home sweet home!'

# If the file is run directly,start the app.
if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(Debug=True)

# To execute, run the file. Then go to 127.0.0.1:5000 in your browser and look at a welcoming message.
