Creating a Flask Web Server in EC2 on the AWS Free Tier from scratch! 

Only halfway through and this has already been one of the most helpful programming tutorials I've ever watched. Wow, good job skipping over all the useless crap, like telling me how to sign up for an AWS account for 5 minutes, while expanding on the stuff that's actually important to know, like what a worker is (never knew that). Thank you!

This is one of the best tutorials I've seen in my entire life. Absolutely clear and straightforward. It worked perfectly, I love this video, I love this guy. Thank you very much

Clear and crisp to the point man great video🙌🏻 explained very well thanks

This is by far one of the most helpful tutorials on AWS that I saw.... thanks!!!

What a great consise tutorial for setting up Flask on AWS! I started a few tutorials, but this one was perfect and to the point. Thank you so much!!

By far the best end to end tutorial on this topic! 🎉

many sleepness nights and hours and hours of trying to get this to work and your tut was the ONE that did it. Thank you sir. You are God send.

dude you are by far my favorite person ever for learning this shit from. You have such a great personality and you're so easy to understand. Thank you shawty

Bro you saved me. Had some trouble because my ec2 was centos, but a bit of extra googling and all is fine now! Thanks!

Thank you Vincent! You saved my life.

Awesome, this video cleared lots of my doubts.

Great video!! Very clear and concise. Thx

The only tutorial that worked!

Can't thank you enough for this! Awesome!

Can never thank you enough, man!

mate, your video is brilliant!

Hey there, Hope you are having a wonderful life! Your video and blog are super helpful! I have one question: why is port 8000 working from outside? I didn't see you set it open in the aws console. Without nginx, will the server be accessible to public browsers? I understand the reverse-proxy but, how is 8000 open to the outside? sorrt for the naive question, been a noob in this area XD thanks!

It was super helpful! Thank you a lot!

Bro, thx so much, you help a lot!!!! Basically you save my life

Thanks a lot mate! Really nice video.

so crisp and helpful!!!

Thank you, this works perfectly!

thank u very much , it was very helpful and clear explanation

Thanks! This video is helpful.

This was great thank you. One question: how can we have an actual link starting with www instead of those numbers?

This was beautiful!

you really did well. But i have a question that is when you bind nginx with this app only, what if i have multiple scripts and want to run those within the same server?

Job well done 🔥🔥

I've been trying this for hours before I fell across your video. Thank you Vincent.

Amazing, To the point, my webApp is live, Thank you!

This really helped me - thanks - I'll make a donation when I can. Subscribed and liked.

Thanks for everything!

Concise.. only one thing. The "systemctl" command is not available with your tutorial (I use Frankfurt AWS node).. you can work your way around things with "service" command... but that does not restart things automatically after a reboot...

I really like this video, its fast.

Great tutorial, thank you

Big thanks from Gdańsk

I love the video, thank you so much! I am having trouble with the src/link tags on HTML though; it seems any ref or href won't link (might be due to relative pathing) so I'm unable to display any JS or CSS or static images. Does anyone have any insight on why this might be/the correct syntax? Thank you in advance!

awesome video

Hey man, thank you soo much !!

Great tutorial, really helpful!!

Hi, i just want to ask if is possible to deploy 2 or more flasks apps in the same ec2 instance with this method, and if that's the case, how?

Saved my day !

I have an ML model with its CSV file. I used the Pickle method and created a flask application. How can I upload new files and update them?

kindly make a tutorial on doing exactly same but on Windows EC2 instance

Amazing. Thank you

How does the service work, if it needs flask. I see that you provide path for gunicorn launch command from the created venv, but how does service know to use the actual venv?

any idea how to check logs from flask server or view print statements? trying to actively debug

Thank you very much sir

Great video. How can i deploy dynamic flask web app?,

Hi Vincent, Can you please help me with how to deploy the api which takes a parameter as input and has a URI and returns back an object. What are the changes that I have to make? Please help me asap as I am stuck on a project. Regards, Parth Verma

wow! thanks a lot

For a simple chat bot for helping people with niche info, would a raspberry pi server suffice?

LIFE CHANGING

Thanks for the useful tutorial. Just one question here... After restarting the instance, it doesn't work anymore, should we have to start manually any of these services?

thank you for helping me, but i've just changed my source code, then i restarted gunicorn and nginx, why still i get the previous one when i curl it in localhost:8000 gunicorn, but if i curl in localhost:5000 when im running it on dev server, i get the changed one.

Where are logs written to when running flask like this?

This tutorial is useful.

Thanks!

how to push new code to flask app in order to reflect it on our web app as I tried updating the code of hello world using git push and also tried restarting nginx server still its showing old app on server

You're a freaking wizard bro let's be friends 😂😂😂 I got ideas dawg 😂

anyone can help me on how to get the link of the app after it is up on AWS? like a link to send to someone to use the app

Technically don't need nginx, can just start flask/gunicorn on port 80? (For demo)

Thank you so much

My father and I are having trouble connecting to our EC2 instance via SSH, and also are attempting to connect to it to send files via SCP. Seems like passing our keys in with the SSH command doesn't work, despite running the same command the Amazon supplies us with (the SSH command). We're also trying to set up Remote SSH to our EC2 instance using VSCode's extension for Remote SSH by Microsoft. Any tips you can give us? Much appreciated!

This was great except when I got to the NGINX part in the last few minutes, I keep getting " [ Directory '/etc/nginx/sites-available' does not exist ]" I ran this a few times but keep getting the same thing. Did I miss a step?

The video is very helpful. Thank you!

Thanks!
