React-Flask

Following a tutorial, I created a basic AJAXy filter component that searches and changes the DOM/view live.

The backend is boilerplate flask application that renders template. Here however, we serve most of the page using React. This has some interesting implications. I am planning to run this in future projects.

1. Clone the repo
2. Create virtual env and source it using source env/bin/activate (OSX.
3. Run [sudo] pip install -r requirements.txt or 'pip install flask'
4. Run npm install
5. Run bower install
6. Run python project/app.py or sh run.sh to run the application
7. Visit localhost:5000 to see the application
