How I Built My First Flask Todo App in 15 Days (Just 2 Hours a Day)

About 15 days ago, one of my friends recommended that I start learning Python and Flask. Honestly, I’m completely new to this side of development. Coming from a different background, a lot of things didn’t make sense in the beginning. I made many mistakes, got stuck multiple times, and had to restart parts more than once. Instead of staying stuck in tutorials, I decided to try building something real — a simple Todo application. The Hardest Part (First Few Days) The first few days were the most confusing. I spent almost 2 days just trying to understand how init .py works. Then I struggled with: How routing works in Flask How configuration is structured How different parts of the app connect together Even basic things like: Virtual environments (venv) What requirements.txt actually does …were not clear at all in the beginning. These are small things, but if you don’t understand them, everything feels broken. What Went Wrong Nothing worked on the first try. Routes kept breaking Login sys
