Flask is a lightweight Python web framework that provides useful tools and features for creating web applications in the Python Language. It gives developers flexibility and is an accessible framework for new developers because you can build a web application quickly using only a single Python file. Flask is also extensible and doesn’t force a particular directory structure or require complicated boilerplate code before getting started. Learning Flask will allow you to quickly create web applications in Python. You can take advantage of Python libraries to add advanced features to your web application, like storing your data in a database, or validating web forms.
