Thanks for writing this issue to me. Actually this project supports python3.x. As i see from your debug logs, you try to use python 2.7 and that's why you get this error.
Btw, this weekend i ll release a major version of this project, which will also support python 2. To quick but dirty solution for your current situation, please follow the following path:

• Be sure that you have python 3 installed on your machine.

• Create a virtualenvironment, there is a tutorial about it, how and why to use it

• Than activate your virtualenvironment

• After that you can install flask-now inside your virtualenvironment.(pip install flask-now)

• Than jump into usage part of documentation.

I hope it was clear for you, I'm also planning to automate virtualenvironment creation, docker deployment and so on.

Best,
Ozan
