But you can also test this app on your PC if Python and Flask are installed, on Arch Linux you would install them by running:
pacman -S python2 python2-flask python2-yaml
On Raspbian:
sudo apt-get install python-flask python-yaml
To view live images from your webcam you will also need fswebcam.
Just run the run.py file with your
python interpreter and the application will
greet you on http://localhost:8080/.
Log in with admin, default.
Please take a look at my blog post for more information. This should be a good starting point for your own project.
I've also written a simpler app for for the iMX233-OLinuXino-MICRO which consists of three files only, have a look here.
