Web-development using Python with Flask

David McKeone and Dave Heaton have been working on a presentation on Flask (a Python based web-framework):

Flask, a Python web framework created by Armin Ronacher, is a popular alternative to Django. It is being used in popular applications like the internal Obama election campaign and Disqus' realtime systems. It uses the simplest fundamentals of HTTP to create an easy to use, but highly customizable, framework for almost any web-based application. This session will be a tutorial of how to create a basic web application with Flask with Test-Driven Development. The tutorial will begin with a simple introduction to Flask and a walk-around to get all participants' computers setup appropriately, followed by a coding dojo session where all participants team up to solve a web-based coding problem. Ideally, all participants should bring a laptop setup with a Python 2.7 coding environment. Those that are not familiar with Python can be assisted to get this environment setup on their own laptops.

Since people will be partnering up, a suggested partnership-list will be posted towards to meetup date so that we have teams consisting of at-least one experienced developer.
