Flask is a microframework for developing web applications in python. While it can be used to render server-side content and serve that to a client (i.e., full-stack application), we are going to use it to make an API for a basic application. Python is a great language for doing server-side logic (i.e., business logic) and Flask provides a basic toolset for building and managing a http server.
