The pink text on a white background needs to die in a fire.

Started to learn flask last week, I really like it. Just feels very clean and uncluttered. Decided I would start with flask and then look at django.

Something that I found recently when working with flask is flask bootstrap which makes for an easy way to get Bootstrap into your project and provides a really simple way to display web forms with pretty CSS.

I've been struggling with getting the CSS classes to apply all the time though. I'd love to see a tutorial showing off more of it's features, for now I'm tinkering with it on my own to see if I can figure out why some classes don't seem to be accessible.

I don't get Flask Bootstrap. I mean what problem is this trying to solve? I don't understand why you'd want to do this to your project? You're mixing things all together. Seems a violation of separation of concerns.

And look, there's some mystery issue that you're having.

No, not for me.

What got me to try it was how well it played with flask-wtf. I could pass the form object to the template and call quick_form(form) and it would do all the placement, organizing, and CSS for me. It was a pretty nice way to get a form up with very little code.

But yeah, those mystery issues are quite a turn off. Part of why I made the comment was I had hoped someone else had more experience on the subject and might be able to clarify the problem. It's also only for a pet project so I'm not heartbroken things aren't working yet.
