Book Description
Developing an interactive and efficiently fast enterprise web application requires both the right approach and tooling. Flask is a lightweight web framework designed to develop scalable web applications in Python. If you are a web developer looking for a way to tap the awesome power of reusable UI components of React and the simplicity of Flask for backend development, you are on the right cruise ship.

This book teaches you how to build simple and efficiently fast production-ready web applications. We begin the book with an introduction to React, a JavaScript library for building highly interactive and reusable user interfaces. As you progress further, you will learn data modeling for the web using SQLAlchemy and PostgreSQL, Restful API development, as well as understand how to identify your application users and control access to your web application. You will also explore the modular architectural design for flask-based web applications, error handling techniques, and a practical web project which will be deployed to AWS cloud computing.

By the end of this book, you would have acquired a deeper knowledge of Flask and React technology stacks to undertake web application development with improved confidence and success.

What you will learn
Explore the fundamentals of React for building user interfaces
Understand how to use JSX to render React components
Handle data and integrate third-party libraries and APIs into React applications
Secure your Flask application with user authentication and authorization
Learn how to use Flask RESTful API to build backend services with React frontend
Build modular and scalable Flask applications using blueprints

Who This Book Is For
This book is intended for Python web developers who wish to build full-stack applications, as well as for frontend developers seeking to expand their skillset by employing Flask as a backend development tool. Readers will gain proficiency in both frontend and backend skills, and acquire knowledge on how to deploy their solutions in the cloud using AWS. Prior knowledge of basic HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python is required to benefit from this book.
