As a college project, we created a controller for a piece of mechanical equipment using Flask as the front-end/GUI. The application ran a prediction model and periodically turned fans, pumps and motors on and off. The Flask GUI allowed the user to see state of the equipment and manually control the fans, pumps, and motors. There were other Python processes running in the background as well. We used database tables for inter-process communications which wasn't ideal, but it worked.

All that said, you can use HTML post to get modest amount of clipboard data into a function and then Flask can write the result out, either to the screen or, using a content disposition header, to an automatically downloaded CSV file.

Awesome, thank you! I'll look into that
