Intro

I'm writing this walkthrough (here and a few other places) to hopfully make it much easier for anyone to impliment their Python Flask websites in a shared hosting environment.

I know many colleges and courses use Python and Flask to create websites, but it may be difficulat to understand how to translate that website from the classroom to a real hosting environment. I know for me personally it tookmany hours pouring through internet searches before I finally figured out how to get this working.

If you feel like you generally know what you're doing and don't need the basics explained to you then you can skip ahead to step 3.

1. Your Host Must Support Python Development

$ > sudo mysql -uroot

mysql > SELECT User, Host FROM mysql.user;

mysql > DROP USER 'root'@'localhost';

	1. Install oh-my-zsh
	sh -c "$(wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh -O -)"

	2. Clone necessary plugins.
	git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions
	git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-history-substring-search
	git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting

	3. Add plugins to ~/.zshrc as
	plugins = ( [plugins...] zsh-autosuggestions zsh-history-substring-search zsh-syntax-highlighting)
