RESTful APIs with Flask

This repository documents my journey of learning how to build RESTful APIs using Flask. It includes step-by-step implementations of various concepts, from basic API design principles to advanced features like authentication, database integration, deployment, and third-party integrations.

The content is based on two Udemy courses: "REST APIs with Flask and Python" and "Advanced REST APIs with Flask and Python". Each section highlights key topics, tools, and techniques, making it a comprehensive resource for anyone looking to learn Flask for API development.
