.. include:: urls.rst

.. contents:: Table of Contents

You know how Docker images, containers, and volumes work. Now, you get
to practice what you learned by creating a Python app using the Flask
micro-framework! 😃

**Your Task**: You will use the Dockerfile from Lab 5 to create a Flask
application that runs inside of your docker container. Here are examples
of what your application will do: 

* |hello|
* |hello-world|
* |hello-latin|
* |hello-cyrilic|
* |hello-chinese| <---Chen 🇨🇳

Goals for Lab 6
-----------------------

The goal for this lab is to create a Python application using the Flask
micro-framework.

During this lab, you will learn how to:

#. **create** a simple Python development environment using Docker
#. **use** docker-compose to define a volume for your development files
#. **develop** a Flask web app to demonstrate the entire development process

Further studies
-----------------------

I recommend the |Flask Tutorial| from Pallets Projects if you
want to study this topic further.
