Flask for Startups

CAD$19
1 rating

This book will show you how to create and structure your Flask app in way that makes it easy to maintain development velocity. This will let you test your ideas very quickly, maximizing your app's chance of success.

Who is this for:

  • Software engineers at startups
  • Indiehackers
  • Side project makers

Why should you read this over other Flask tutorials?

Simplicity and Predictability are important characteristics of a Flask structure that allows you to iterate quickly. Take a look at the end product (what you'll be building) on Github to get a view of what this means: https://github.com/nuvic/flask_for_startups.

I've used different Flask structures in the past, ranging from a single massive file to a modular app with Blueprints. I've found that this structure works well for startup/indiehacker type projects where requirements keep changing so a flexible, simple and predictable structure is crucial.

Who are you?
