## What it is
An extended version of the official Flask tutorial that walks through building Flaskr, a mini-blog application, using test-driven development with pytest plus a bit of JavaScript and deployment. It is a maintained educational codebase and article for learning Flask and TDD fundamentals.

## Use cases
- learn flask web development from scratch
- learn test-driven development in python
- how to write pytest tests for a flask app
- tutorial for building a small blog app with flask
- example of adding javascript and ajax to a flask app
- learn how to deploy a flask application

## When to choose
- you are new to Flask or web development and want a guided, test-first tutorial
- you want a practical introduction to TDD with pytest in Python
- you want a small, complete reference app covering setup, testing, templates, and deployment

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready blogging platform or CMS
- you need an advanced Flask reference covering async, blueprints at scale, or microservices
- you are not using Python or Flask
