flask_wtf_demo

What is this ?

A simple app' demoing the usage of Flask-WTF, including a custom validator.

Flask-WTF is a lib that exists to help developers handle forms on Flask, IMHO, the 3 main things to consider when setting up basic HTML forms using this lib are:

  • CSRF initialization and usage in HTML templates
  • using the lib submit button type
  • conditional behavior in controllers based on if form.validate_on_submit()
