About
Flask is a lightweight WSGI web application framework for Python, designed to make it quick and easy to get started while scaling to complex applications. It is built on top of Werkzeug, Jinja2, and Click, providing routing, templating, configuration, and extension support. Flask follows a micro-framework philosophy, giving developers flexibility to structure their applications as needed.
Problem
