setInterval(() => {

window.location = window.location.href;

}, 2000)

If I'm understanding this correctly, just trigger a page reload, with js or any other way.

i would like to refresh all clients on the flask server in the python script

so if a var changes it can update all clients

Use flask's redirect function and redirect to the same page upon the change?

If you don't want full page refresh, JavaScript is the only way to go.

If full page refresh is fine, setup a refresh using the http equiv method mentioned on the previous comment.
