RedHat: RHSA-2023-3440:01 Important: Red Hat OpenStack Platform 17.0
Summary
Flask is called a âmicro-frameworkâ because the idea to keep the core
simple but extensible. There is no database abstraction layer, no form
validation or anything else where different libraries already exist that
can handle that. However Flask knows the concept of extensions that can add
this functionality into your application as if it was implemented in Flask
itself. There are currently extensions for object relational mappers, form
validation, upload handling, various open authentication technologies and
more.
