Sending error mails, even if just for critical ones, can become

+To use Sentry you need to install the `sentry-sdk` client with extra `flask` dependencies::
- $ pip install raven[flask]

And then add this to your Flask app::
- from raven.contrib.flask import Sentry
- sentry = Sentry(app, dsn='YOUR_DSN_HERE')

-Or if you are using factories you can also init it later::

- from raven.contrib.flask import Sentry

The `YOUR_DSN_HERE` value needs to be replaced with the DSN value you get
from your Sentry installation.
