Welcome to Flask's documentation. This documentation is divided in
|
|
|
|
|
different parts. I would suggest to get started with the
|
|
|
|
|
:ref:`installation` and then heading over to the :ref:`quickstart`.
|
|
|
|
|
Besides the quickstart there is also a more detailed :ref:`tutorial` that
|
|
|
|
|
shows how to create a complete (albeit small) application with Flask. If
|
|
|
|
|
you rather want to dive into all the internal parts of Flask, check out
|
|
|
|
|
the :ref:`api` documentation. Common patterns are described in the
|
|
|
|
|
:ref:`patterns` section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Flask also depends on two external libraries: the `Jinja2`_ template
|
|
|
|
|
engine and the `Werkzeug`_ WSGI toolkit. both of which are not documented
|
|
|
|
|
here. If you want to dive into their documentation check out the
|
|
|
|
|
