is-democracy-on-fire

A Flask implementation of a simple website, designed to answer a burning question

Intro

is-democracy-on-fire (IDOF) is a project I started to learn a little bit about Flask, the popular web app framework for Python.

Running IDOF

Running IDOF on your local machine is simple. Import the app module, create an app instance, and run it. You can do this in a python interpreter or standalone script like so:

import app  

idof = app.create_app()  
idof.run()  

This will start Flask's own web server and make IDOF available at 127.0.0.1:5000. If you would like to run IDOF on an Apache web server, see these instructions.
