~ What is Flask?

  Flask is a microframework for Python based on Werkzeug
  and Jinja2.  It's intended for getting started very quickly
  and was developed with best intentions in mind.

~ Is it ready?

  It's still not 1.0 but it's shaping up nicely and is
  already widely used.  Consider the API to slightly
  improve over time but we don't plan on breaking it.

~ What do I need?

  Jinja 2.4 and Werkzeug 0.7 or later.
  `pip` or `easy_install` will install them for you if you do
  `pip install Flask`.  I encourage you to use a virtualenv.
  Check the docs for complete installation and usage
  instructions.

~ Where are the docs?

  Go to http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/ for a prebuilt version
  of the current documentation.  Otherwise build them yourself
  from the sphinx sources in the docs folder.

~ Where are the tests?

  Good that you're asking.  The tests are in the
  flask/testsuite package.  To run the tests use the
  `run-tests.py` file:

    $ python run-tests.py

  If it's not enough output for you, you can use the
  `--verbose` flag:

    $ python run-tests.py --verbose

  If you just want one particular testcase to run you can
  provide it on the command line:

    $ python run-tests.py test_to_run

~ Where can I get help?

  Either use the #pocoo IRC channel on irc.freenode.net or
  ask on the mailinglist: http://flask.pocoo.org/mailinglist/

  See http://flask.pocoo.org/community/ for more resources.
