Flask Web Development: Developing Web Applications with Python by Miguel Grinberg

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I read the second edition of the book

I’ve read lots of books covering web frameworks or GUI programming (both involve UI design and a different workflow where you’re often waiting for user input), but this one is one of the best I’ve ever read. While it’s traditional for a book to culminate in a blog or social media app (and this one does it too) there’s something about the way Grinberg writes that makes it so much more approachable. Also, something only more modern books can do, he has a github repo with all the code with commits that match different sections of the book.

I feel incredibly confident that I’ll be able to write and debug flask applications after having read this book. Highly recommend if you’re a web programmer who is doing to work with the flask web framework.
