Description: "Building AI Applications with Flask" is a comprehensive course designed for beginners and intermediate developers who want to master Flask, a lightweight and powerful web framework, to build AI-driven applications. This course starts with the fundamentals of Flask, teaching you how to set up a minimal application, manage debugging, and ensure secure HTML escaping. You'll learn about routing basics, handling different types of variable rules such as strings, integers, floats, paths, and UUIDs, and understand unique URL generation and redirect behaviors.
The course also covers important aspects of web development such as using HTTP methods to handle requests, working with static files, rendering templates, and accessing and manipulating request data from forms, cookies, and files. You will gain hands-on experience with redirects, error handling, and response management, including streaming.
By building three progressively complex applications throughout the course, you'll apply what you've learned in real-world scenarios, developing skills in session management, message flashing, and logging. This structured approach ensures you not only learn the technical skills necessary to build AI applications using Flask but also understand best practices and practical implementations.
