Consider the usage of an orm framework #14

Manually written sql statements can make software hard to maintain imho. I assume the webframework we use has something better to offer than manually sending sql statements? cc @ldruschk

flask-sqlalchemy should be the way to go

Still not sure this isn't engineering for engineering's sake...

Using an ORM instead of plain database queries is light years away from "engineering for engineering's sake". The moment you need to do manual migrations it just gets unnecessarily complicated and a lot of queries would get simplified too.

If the landing page was feature-complete I would agree that this is not necessary, but since we want to implement new features going forward this will just make our lives easier.
