Answer 7

Flask is a web server and needs to be running to use it. In most cases, you have it setup and just leave it running on whatever computer. It will run on Windows/Linux/Mac whatever.

Once the Flask server is running, you'll have to setup your navigation and build your various web pages.

You'll need to find a tutorial about all this. But once you get it running, you'll find it fairly easy to work with.

If you are running it on your own PC, you'll want to "start" the server (flask). Then you can reach it with the address/port using your browser.
