Flask-Wiz

Effortlessly generate Flask project structures with optional frontend and database setup.

Flask-Wiz is a Python package that helps you easily generate a Flask project structure.
It allows you to optionally integrate popular frontend frameworks and choose from multiple database options, keeping the backend powered by Flask.

Key Features

• Organize a clean Flask backend project quickly.
• Optionally set up a frontend with frameworks like React.js, Next.js, Vue.js, or Angular.
• Choose from multiple database options: SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB.
• Interactive command-line prompts using Inquirer to simplify project setup.
• Clean separation of backend (server/) and frontend (client/) folders.

Installation

Install Flask-Wiz from PyPI:

pip install flask-wiz

Usage

To generate a new project, simply run:

flask-wiz new

You will be guided through an interactive setup where you can select:

• Frontend framework (React, Vue, Next.js, Angular, or None)
• Database (SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB)

Enter project name :

Do you need a frontend framework? (Y/N) : 

Select a framework :
    > React.Js
    > Vue.Js
    > Next.Js
    > Angular.Js

Select a database system :
    > pymongo
    > sqlite3
    > pymysql
    > psycopg2-binary

Based on your choices, Flask-Wiz will generate a ready-to-use project structure.

Project Structure

Typical generated structure:

project-name/
|
├── client/           # Frontend app (only if selected)
|   ├── (React/Vue/Angular/Next.js starter)
|
├── server/           # Flask backend
|   ├── app.py
|   ├── requirements.txt
|
└── README.md         # Project README

• If no frontend is selected, only the server/ folder is created.
