Building a Full-Stack Flask-React Web App:

<p>Welcome, weary travelers of the Internet! You&rsquo;ve ventured far and wide, seeking wisdom and morsels of code. Your journey has led you to the Oracle of Web Development: a blog post about building a full-stack Flask-React web application. Prepare for a cosmic, high-level, and minimally granular odyssey through Flask&rsquo;s back alleys and React&rsquo;s luscious forests. So buckle up, and let&rsquo;s get started!</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:630/0*VsSnd2u4wVGtVAlx" style="height:467px; width:700px" /></p> <p>Photo by&nbsp;<a href="https://unsplash.com/@lautaroandreani?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Lautaro Andreani</a>&nbsp;on&nbsp;<a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=medium&amp;utm_medium=referral" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Unsplash</a></p> <h1><strong>Backend: Where Flask Holds the Fort</strong></h1> <p><strong><em>Database Schema, Models, and Tables</em></strong></p> <p>Ah, the database &mdash; a sacred temple where data lives in eternal slumber. In this imaginary, fragmentary incarnation of Flask, we&rsquo;re using SQLAlchemy as our Object-Relational Mapper (ORM). Don&rsquo;t worry, it&rsquo;s like the Swiss Army knife of database tools; it does all the heavy lifting for you.</p> <p>First, create a&nbsp;<code>models.py</code>&nbsp;file and define your models. Here&#39;s a sample model for a simple to-do list:</p> <pre> from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy db = SQLAlchemy() class Task(db.Model): id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True) title = db.Column(db.String(80)) is_done = db.Column(db.Boolean, default=False)</pre> <p><em>API Endpoints</em></p> <p>API endpoints are like the enchanted gates to our Flask kingdom. We&rsquo;re using Flask-RESTful to make these gates as imposing as possible, because it&rsquo;s the &ldquo;cool kid on the block&rdquo; for setting up RESTful APIs in Flask.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@wspeters_58726/building-a-full-stack-flask-react-web-app-21c8f1dcee29">Visit Now</a></p>
