This is a boiler plate flask application for larger applications. I have created this project because I have found that working examples of larger flask based applications to be somewhat lacking.

To use this for your flask application some requirements must be meet. I highly recommend the use of the use of virtualenv!

1. You have Python 2.7.x installed
2. You have Python PIP installed
3. You have Node Package Manager installed (npm)    

I have baked in flask extensions that I find to be useful for nearly all my flask projects. Node asset management with bootstrap-sass and font-awesome. I have also extended some of the extensions to make them slightly easier to use (in my humble opinion), and some customizations I make to every flask application. I have also setup a directory structure that I find to be easy to work with that helps to organize my projects better.

1. SQLAlchemy, Flask-SQLAlchemy, and SQLAlchemy-Utils
2. Alembic (for database migrations)
3. Celery, Flask-Celery, Flask-Celery-Helper, a Custom Task Router
4. Flask-Script; with some custom commands to wrap running gulp tasks and some database commands
5. Flask-DebugToolbar
6. Flask-Classy; with a custom base view class for class based views
7. Flask-Admin
8. Flask-Security
9. WTForms, Flask-WTForms
10. PyYAML, used here for database seeds
11. Gunicorn, for application server with gevent
12. Bootstrap-sass
13. Font-Awesome

This project is a work in progress, documentation and base are not yet fully developed. Support form the community is welcome!
