This flask starter template includes everything you need to start your own app including auth, database, and security, to get up and started quickly.

Uses CSRF tokens and CSP headers to protect your website from injection. It also does all of this stuff: /~https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/flask-talisman

Make sure you have the latest version of Python installed. Built in 3.11.

git clone /~https://github.com/Neceros/flask-starter.git
cd flask-starter

Set up your virtual environment. It's easy, and you should do it for every project, as it will save you many headaches later on from a bloated python.

Make sure the virtual environment is outside your project folder:

python3 -m venv /flask-apps/venv/flask-starter
source /flask-apps/venv/flask-starter/bin/activate

The first line creates the environment and the second line activates it.

If you are using Windows you can put it anywhere like: python3 -m venv c:\flask-apps\venv\flask-starter

Please see https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html if you need help with venv.

Now that you are inside the project folder and the virtual environment, install the required packages listed in the requirements.txt file:

pip install -r requirements.txt

You are ready to begin. Everything should be setup and ready to run right this moment. Just start adding your application code!

• Add database models: products, posts, tracks, downloads, etc
