Flask Gentelella

Gentelella is a free to use Bootstrap admin template.

This project integrates Gentelella with Flask using:

• Blueprints for scalability.
• flask_login for the login system (passwords hashed with bcrypt).
• flask_migrate.

Flask-gentelella also comes with a robust CI/CD pipeline using:

• The Pytest framework for the test suite (see the tests folder).
• Travis CI
• Coverage to measure the code coverage of the tests.
• Selenium to test the application with headless chromium.
• A Dockerfile showing how to containerize the application with gunicorn, and a Docker image available on dockerhub, and integrated to the CI/CD pipeline (see instructions below).

Here is an example of a real project implemented using Flask-Gentelella:

• Online demo
• Source code

This project shows:

• how back-end and front-end can interact responsively with AJAX requests.
• how to implement a graph model with SQLAlchemy and use D3.js for graph visualization.
• how to implement a workflow automation system using Vis.js.
• how to use Leaflet.js for GIS programming.
• how to use Flask APScheduler to implement crontab-like features.
