A Number of Build a SAAS App with Flask Course Updates

a-number-of-build-a-saas-app-with-flask-course-updates.jpg

We'll cover small refactors, Python package updates, Python 3.13 and version updates for Postgres, Redis and Stripe's API.

Quick Jump:

Now that Flask 3.1 is out, it’s a good time to provide another update to the course. So far there’s been 9+ years of support / free updates and I don’t see that stopping anytime soon.

Normally these update videos are private to folks who purchased the course but this time around I put it up on YouTube. Keep in mind, at some points during the video I might glance over a few details such as getting set up with the app because they’ve been covered in depth in previous videos.
