Star Wars 3D Models & Blueprints: Front End Web App using Flask

Codacy Badge Updates Python 3

πŸŽ“ Web Track

  • Homepage: Tasked to build a simple homepage using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I took this as an opportunity to go beyond this by practicing design and using advanced CSS mehtods.

πŸ’‘Lessons Learned

  • Wireframing and Prototyping in AdobeXD
  • Mobile-first design
  • Building Front-End from Design Specs
  • SVG code in-line within HTML (and when to use src file reference instead)
  • SVG in place of heavy CSS
  • SVG animations
  • Advanced CSS properties
  • Deploying a Flask application on Heroku
  • Git branch management

πŸš€ Getting Started

To run this project locally:

  • In your terminal, navigate to the root project directory and run the following commands
  • Activate the virtual environment
$ pipenv shell
  • To install the dependencies
$ pip install Flask
$ pipenv install Flask
  • To start the web server, execute (without debugging):
$ python application.py 
  • Alternatively, execute (without debugging):
$ export FLASK_APP=application.py
$ flask run

Migrate from Flask to Gatsby.js and from Heroku to Netlify

Initially built this website with a backend server using the Python framework, Flask, which was primarily used for its routing and templating capabilities. The website is hosted on the free tier plan on Heroku, alongside two other websites using the free tier plan.

The main problem with this approach was that it was heavy since Flask isn't strictly necessary to achieve routing and templating.

Therefore, after learning about React.js, Gatsby.js, and the Jamstack, I put the two together. Refactor this application by migrating from a server-based architecture with Flask to a static-site architecture with Gatsby.js. Switch cloud-hosting providers from Heroku to Netlify.

The code will be more simple with Gatsby doing all the work. The production website will have better performance and 100% uptime (no sleeping).
