I think its because you've stored your secret key in some ignored python dir instance

No idea what this is meant to be

strazto commented 3 months ago

Made a file called instance.py

class config:
    SECRET_KEY = "keyboardcat"

Looks like u ignore a folder instance/, I assume you intended:

# instance/config.py
SECRET_KEY = "keyboardcat"

Probably better off using env vars for your app secrets or something. document this
