This web development course with Flask is aimed at people who want to easily and quickly create more than just static web pages.
Taking advantage of its modern technologies Internet And the possibilities that offers us Flask, the Python language, databases and other very useful modern tools that we will use during our course, we will create a fully functional web application and study all the technologies necessary to create it. Upon completion of the course you will be able to build your own web applications and understand the technologies and tools behind them.
The course first includes some theoretical topics related to internet technologies and protocols that we need to know in order to proceed to the practical part of creating web applications. In addition, there are some useful tools that will help you organize your work but also save time and move forward with more ease in the development of your work. You will also learn how to create simple applications with Flask with minimal code and use the various tools. In the last part of the course you will create your web application.
The total effort to complete the course is 60 hours and a first contact with the languages is necessary Python, HTML and (to a lesser extent) CSS.
Of course there are many things related to the development and use of a web application which will not be covered within the narrow limits of the course, such as for example the deployment of the application on a production server, the creation of an API (e.g. a REST API ) with Flask, creating Asynchronous Tasks, etc.; these topics are material for a more advanced course. But you will reach a good enough level of knowledge that by the end of the course you will have acquired the necessary skills to move, if you wish, to more advanced levels of web application development.
