Flask: Todo App

This project is a simple Todo application developed as part of my learning journey with Flask. The application covers the basics of Flask, including route configuration, handling request methods, and setting up a database for data storage. The app allows users to add, delete, and update tasks.

Features

• Route Configuration: Learned to configure routes for different endpoints.
• Request Methods: Implemented handling for GET, POST, and DELETE requests.
• Database Setup: Configured a database to store todo tasks.
• Task Management: Users can add, delete, and update tasks.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• Flask
• SQLite (or any other preferred database)

Installation

• Clone the Repository:

https://github.com/Muneeb1030/FLask_Basics.git
cd flask-todo-app

• Create a virtual environment:

python3 -m venv venv 
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows use `venv\Scripts\activate`

• Install dependencies:

pip install Flask

• Set up the database:

flask db init
flask db migrate -m "Initial migration." 
flask db upgrade

• Run the Flask app:

flask run

• Open your browser and navigate to:

http://127.0.0.1:5000/

Usage

• Add a Task: Use the form on the main page to add a new task.
• Delete a Task: Click the delete button next to the task you want to remove.
• Update a Task: Click the update button next to the task you want to edit, modify the task, and save changes.

Key Learning Points

• Routing: Configured routes to handle different URLs and HTTP methods.
• Request Methods: Managed GET, POST, and DELETE requests to interact with the application.
• Database Integration: Set up a SQLite database to store and manage todo tasks.
• Template Rendering: Used Jinja2 templates to render HTML pages dynamically.
