Foreign currency converter app built using python and flask. No JS. Uses forex-python to retrieve latest exchange rates.
Ideally this application would be made wish AJAX to create a better UX but I sought out to create a web app without a client-side script file. Although it was possible to create the application without the script file, page redirects were necessary without the AJAX functionality.
- Open source forex-python was used to retrieve latest exchange rates.
- Flask (lightweight python framework) was used to handle routes and make server-side API calls using the
requests
dependency.
