Hey everyone! I'm currently learning Flask, but I feel like most tutorials focus on simpler tasks that don't really showcase how Flask is fully utilized in real-world applications. They often skip over or copy-paste information that isn't directly related to Flask. While I understand that they aim to teach the basics, I'd really love to see some actual projects that demonstrate how developers use Flask alongside other frameworks and tools. If anyone could share a GitHub link to some comprehensive Flask projects, that would be awesome!

You should definitely check out GitHub directly! They have a ton of resources. Just try searching for 'Python Flask application' and you'll find plenty of projects to explore! It could give you a good sense of how Flask is actually used in practice.
Just a fun fact: Flask is great for simpler projects because it was originally marketed that way. If you're aiming for something more complex, other frameworks might be more suitable.
Here’s a link you can check: [Flask Projects on GitHub](https://github.com/topics/python-flask-application). There are over 100 projects there! Just a heads up though, I've personally moved on from Flask to something like Quart, which is Flask-compatible and supports async programming better. Just giving you options!
Honestly, if you're starting fresh, you might look into FastAPI instead of Flask. FastAPI does a lot of what Flask does but offers features like auto-generated API documentation and better async support, which can be super useful. Don’t let the async part scare you; you can use it without needing to delve into async programming right away!
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely check out FastAPI.
