Flask

In this reading, we'll dig even deeper into Flask.

Get vs Post

The first part of the reading discusses the flask request object, which holds information that comes from the browser. As we learned in the last reading (HTTP methods), there are several kinds of requests in the HTTP protocol, but the two most important are GET and POST.

The W3Schools has a good and concise summary of GET versus POST. That's a fairly short page; please read all of it.
