Flask CSV

* Bootstrap as Front-End CSS Framework
* python Flask as Back-End Framework
* Jinja 2 for data transfer with Front-End and Back-End
* CSV file to load and save data

1. The home page should use the css/styles.css file to look like this: HINT: Think about bootstrap blocks and super blocks

   

2. The /cafes route should render the cafes.html file. This file should contain a Bootstrap table which displays all the data from the cafe-data.csv HINT: A object called cafes is passed to cafes.html from the /cafes route. Try putting it in a <p> to see what the data in cafes look like.

   

3. The location URL should be rendered as an anchor tag <a> in the table instead of the full link. It should have the link text Maps Link and the href should be the actual link. HINT: All location links have the first 4 characters as http.

   

4. Clicking on the Show Me! button on the home page should take you to the cafes.html page.

   

5. There should be a secret route /add which doesn't have a button, but those in the know should be able to access it and it should take you to the add.html file.

   

6. Use what you have learnt about WTForms to create a quick_form in the add.html page that contains all the fields you can see in the demo below:

7. Make sure that the location URL field has validation that checks the data entered is a valid URL:

8. When the user successfully submits the form on add.html, make sure the data gets added to the cafe-data.csv. It needs to be appended to the end of the csv file. The data from each field need to be comma-separated like all the other lines of data in cafe-data.csv

9. Make sure all the navigation links in the website work.
