Flask Profile Project

This project demonstrates two ways of serving a personal profile page with Flask:

1. Basic Approach:

   • Uses basic.py to serve a single HTML file (basic.html) via send_from_directory.
   • No dynamic parameters or redirects.

2. Advanced Approach:

   • Uses advanced.py with Flask’s render_template to serve advanced.html.
   • Redirects from / to /profile and injects parameters (name, description) into the template.

Project Summary

• We created two Python files (basic.py and advanced.py) to showcase both simple and more advanced serving methods in Flask.
• We built two HTML pages (basic.html and advanced.html), each demonstrating a different approach.
• A requirements.txt file is included to specify the dependencies needed for this project (primarily Flask).
• We also included a static/ folder containing CSS and image files.

How to Run

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone <repo url>
   cd <repo-name>
   
   

2. install Dependancies

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   
   

3. run the basic version

   python basic.py
   
   

4. run the advanced version

   python advanced.py
   
   

Go to http://127.0.0.1:5000/. You’ll be redirected to /profile, where you’ll see the Advanced page with dynamic parameters.
