If you are not sure if Python is properly installed, please open a terminal and type python --version. The full-list with dependencies and tools required to build the app:
- Python3 - the programming language used to code the app
- Git - used to clone the source code from the Github repository
- A Github account - the invitation to the source code, will be sent on your account.
- Basic development tools (g++ compiler, python development libraries ..etc) used by Python to compile the app dependencies in your environment.
Check Python (using the terminal)
$ # Check Python version
$ python --version

The boilerplate code is built with a modular structure that follows the recommended pattern used by many open-source projects. The most important files and directories are shown below:
< PROJECT ROOT > # application root folder
|
|--- app/__init__.py # application constructor
|--- app/base/ # base blueprint
|--- app/base/static/assets # Img, CSS, Janascript files
|--- app/base/templates # Jinja2 files (layouts, login pages)
| |---<errors> # Dir - Error pages: 404, 500
| |---<login> # Dir - Login and Registration pages
| |---<site_template> # Dir - Components: footer, sidebar, header
|
|
|--- app/home/ # home blueprint
|--- app/home/templates # Jinja2 files (Pages): index, icons, tables
| |---- index.html # Main dashboard page
| |---- forms-basic.html # App pages

|--- .env # store env variables
|--- config.py # app configuration profiles: Debug, Production
|
|--- requirements.txt # Requirements for development - SQLite storage
|--- requirements-pgsql.txt # Requirements for production - Pgsql Database

What is Flask
Flask is a lightweight WSGI web application framework. It is designed to make getting started quick and easy, with the ability to scale up to complex applications. It began as a simple wrapper around Werkzeug and Jinja and has become one of the most popular Python web application frameworks.
In information technology, a dashboard is a user interface that, somewhat resembling an automobile's dashboard, organizes and presents information in a way that is easy to read. However, a computer dashboard is more likely to be interactive than an automobile dashboard (unless it is also computer-based). To some extent, most graphical user interfaces (GUIs) resemble a dashboard - by Techtarget
