Flask Introduction (Expanded)

Flask is a lightweight, WSGI-based web framework for Python, designed to build web applications

quickly and easily.

It is often described as a 'microframework' because it does not include many built-in features,

allowing developers to add only what is necessary for their specific use case.

Flask handles HTTP requests, manages routing, and supports templating using Jinja2, a powerful

templating language that allows the dynamic generation of HTML content.

Flask applications are modular and can be easily extended using various third-party libraries or

plugins for features such as authentication, databases, and form handling.

One of the key features of Flask is its simplicity and flexibility, making it ideal for small to

medium-sized applications, RESTful APIs, or even microservices.

Despite being a microframework, Flask is capable of handling more complex applications when

paired with extensions like Flask-SQLAlchemy for database management or Flask-Login for

authentication.
