Turn your web scraper into a web app with Python and Flask

How to make a simple flask app that takes data from an API feed and displays it as a webpage. The idea of this video was to show how we can take simple and short Python scripts and make them into web apps very simply with very little learning required. This should be used as a building block to get you off the ground and creating your own apps.

Hi John, another great one. I had never heard of Bulma before. This one moved pretty quick, if possible would always appreciate a "real-time" view at how to build this out. Thank you again!

this took 3-4 hours to set this up on windows for me

In powershell
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate
pip install flask
pip install requests
set FLASK_APP=app
Add this to app.py
at the end. Im not even sure where i found this script and why it makes it work
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(debug=True, threaded=True)
Then run the green run button in vs code. for some reason this wont work with flask run command

Hey, do you know how to do this when scraping Javascript with Selenium (e.g.)?
