Flask is a simple, powerful, and easy-to-learn Python micro framework. It is also one of the most widely used open source web application frameworks. In this series the learners will learn about the fundamental concepts of web development with hands-on experience to build a web app with Flask. Flask is light-weight and easy to extend. Therefore it is possible to extend the functionalities of the web app by integrating it with third-party APIs. Flask uses Jinja2 templating engine.
