Python Flask Web Survey App Tutorial

Welcome to the Python Flask Web Survey App Tutorial

In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a web survey app using Python and Flask. Flask is a lightweight web framework for Python that makes it easy to build web applications quickly and efficiently.

Getting Started

First, you’ll need to make sure you have Python and Flask installed on your computer. You can install Python from the official website and Flask using pip, the Python package manager.


$ pip install flask

Setting Up the App

Once you have Flask installed, you can start creating your survey app. Create a new directory for your app and create a new file called app.py. This file will be the main entry point for your application. In app.py, you can start by importing the necessary modules and defining routes for your app.


from flask import Flask, render_template, request
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template('index.html')

@app.route('/survey', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def survey():
if request.method == 'POST':
# Process survey data
return 'Survey submitted!'
return render_template('survey.html')

Creating the Templates

Next, you’ll need to create HTML templates for the different pages of your app. You can create a main template called index.html and a template for the survey form called survey.html. In the templates, you can use Flask’s template engine to include dynamic content and logic.

Running the App

Finally, you can run your Flask app by running the following command in your terminal:


$ python app.py

Your app should now be running on http://localhost:5000. You can open this URL in your web browser and start using your survey app!

That’s it! You’ve now created a simple web survey app using Python and Flask. You can extend this app further by adding more features and customizing the design. Happy coding!

any chance you could post the final code to github? I'm having a hard time keeping track during the video
