QuickStart

• Intro       • QuickStart App       • Basic App       • MongoDB App      

With less than a dozen lines of code, we can extend existing Flask applications with the following additional functionality:

  • User registration with username and/or email
  • Email confirmation
  • User authentication (Login and Logout)
  • Change username
  • Change password
  • Forgot password

Choose a QuickStart app

  • QuickStart App – Login with username. No need to configure SMTP.
  • Basic App – Login with email, Role-based authentication, and Translations.
  • MongoDB App – QuickStart App for MongoDB.

Flask-User-starter-app

While the example apps provide a quick way to illustrate the use of Flask-User, we do not recommend its single-file techniques.

The Flask-User-starter-app follows typical Flask application practices using multiple files in an organized directory structure:

app/
    commands/
    models/
    static/
    templates/
    views/
tests/

This may serve as a great starting place to create your next Flask application.
