A simple REST API using the Flask web framework

[cjrh]

This should be a beginner-level talk that guides a beginner through the set up of a simple API project, considerations in designing the resultful API itself, and (hopefully if there is time) how to get it running on, e.g. an AWS compute instance. It would be awesome for an attendee to leave with enough of an introduction to get their own API running somewhere in the cloud.

A tutorial on setting up a basic GraphQL API using Flask would also be great, I'm only hearing good things about it from web devs.

@phodge Are you offering to be the speaker, or just +1ing the topic? 😊

[phodge]

There is a slim possibility I have to travel that week. I'll let you know as early as I can if that is the case. If so , I'm happy to do the following month.
