Item Catalog Web App

This web app is a project for the Udacity FSND Course.

About

This project is a RESTful web application utilizing the Flask framework which accesses a SQL database that populates categories and their items. OAuth2 provides authentication for further CRUD functionality on the application. Currently OAuth2 is implemented for Google Accounts.

In This Repo

This project has one main Python module app.py which runs the Flask application. A SQL database is created using the database_setup.py module and you can populate the database with test data using database_init.py. The Flask application uses stored HTML templates in the tempaltes folder to build the front-end of the application. CSS/JS/Images are stored in the static directory.
