Please continue making videos like this, they are so fun to watch and so educational at the same time. Hope you make more!

Really enjoyed the way you speak, code. It was very entertaining watching someone who knows what they are doing and explaining what they are doing. Surprising to see such quality content for someone with less than a 1000 subs. Great job!

Whale hello there!

I didn't understand what you explained at 10:43

If Flask's default development port is 5000 and you mapped your local machine's port 5000 to the container's port 5000, then why doesn't it work when you access it locally at a localhost:5000?

Why CMD ["python3", "app.py"] doesn't work ?
Locally without docker when I run python3 app.py in my folder project it works.
