So what did that code do?
1. first we imported the :class:`~flask.Flask` class. An instance of this

class will be our WSGI application. The first argument is the name of
the application's module. If you are using a single module (like here)
you should use `__name__` because depending on if it's started as
application or imported as module the name will be different
(``'__main__'`` versus the actual import name). For more information
on that, have a look at the :class:`~flask.Flask` documentation.
2. next we create an instance of it. We pass it the name of the module /
package. This is needed so that Flask knows where it should look for
templates, static files and so on.
