flask_tracker

a very simplified system for monitoring the activities of a work team, based on Flask Admin.

flask_tracker is a variation on the theme of activity trackers (Trac, Redmine, Assembla, Trello, ...), based on a home-made approach in order to get:

• total control, versatilty and customability.
• no overhead i.e. lightweight
• much fun.

It is not aimed to be:

• a full-optional team-management-tool for large companies
• a full-fledged, full-optional spaceship

It is buitl using (see INSTALL_REQUIRES in setup.py for a complete dependency list):

'flask',
'flask_admin',
'flask_sqlalchemy',
'flask-login',
'markdown',
'waitress',

For the built-in wiki, flask_tracker integrates code cloned from the project alexanderjulo/wiki
