At a Glance
Flask is a popular Python web framework that provides useful tools and features for web development. In this guided project, you will create an application to perform create-read-update-delete (CRUD) operations using a Flask server.
Python is a popular programming language because of its many libraries. Flask is a library you can use to build, deploy, and scale web applications easily and quickly. With Flask, you can also create REST APIs, applications, and servers.
In this guided project, you will create a Flask application to service all the REST APIs for adding, retrieving, updating, and deleting products. You will learn how to use CRUD operations in Python, and then you’ll create the REST API endpoints, run and test the server with cURL, and use POSTMAN to test the REST API endpoints.
After completing this guided project, you’ll be ready to put your new skills to work when using Flask and CRUD operations in Python.
A Look at the Project Ahead
After completing this project, you'll be able to:
- Create API endpoints to perform Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete operations on transient data with a Flask server
- Create REST API endpoints, and use POSTMAN to test your REST APIs
What You'll Need
 For this project, you will need:
- Familiarity with Python fundamentals
- Familiarity with POSTMAN and Flask fundamentals
- A web browser
Everything else is provided to you via the IBM Skills Network Labs environment, where you will have access to the Python environment that we offer as part of the IBM Skills Network Labs environment. This platform works best with current versions of modern browsers.Â
