A video course where we build a real world web application with Flask, Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL, Stripe and Docker.

You'll need to enable Docker Compose v2 support if you're using Docker Desktop. On native Linux without Docker Desktop you can install it as a plugin to Docker. It's been generally available for a while now and is stable. This project uses specific Docker Compose v2 features that only work with Docker Compose v2 2.20.2+.
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up --build
After everything is up and running, visit http://localhost:8000.
Did you receive a depends_on
"Additional property required is not allowed"
error? Please update to at least Docker Compose v2.20.2+ or Docker Desktop
4.22.0+.
Did you receive an error about a port being in use? Chances are it's because
something on your machine is already running on port 8000. Check out the docs
in the .env
file for the DOCKER_WEB_PORT_FORWARD
variable to fix this.
Did you receive a permission denied error? Chances are you're running native
Linux and your uid:gid
aren't 1000:1000
(you can verify this by running
id
). Check out the docs in the .env
file to customize the UID
and GID
variables to fix this.
In the course we build up a 4,000+ line Flask application in 15 stages while
I'm at your side explaining my thought process along the way. You will get to
see the source code grow from a single app.py
file to a large code base that
spans across dozens of files and folders.
By the time you finish the course, you'll have all the confidence you need to build a large web application with Flask.
There's over 187 video lessons, 25+ hours of content, coding exercises and an e-book that's included. You also get free updates for life as well as life time support. I've added 15+ hours of free updates over the years.
These updates range from adding new features like Webpack to keeping Python, Node and all package / service versions up to date. There's even 1 update that's a 5 hour live recording where I updated a bunch of things at once. This includes using git too (making good commits, interactive rebasing, etc.), live debugging and Googling for errors.
Also as a bonus, there's an additional 18 video lessons and 3 hours of content that covers building a separate RESTful API driven application that uses websockets.
