This project contains examples of Spotify API's three authorization flows using Python/Flask:

• Authorization Code
• Client Credentials
• Implicit Grant

The authorization code and implicit grant flow examples show the authorizing user's profile, token information, and a button that refreshes the access token.

The client credentials flow example includes a search function that lists artist information from Spotify.
