Deploying Flask Application on GitHub Pages

[Ereiqat]

Hey everyone,

I'm struggling to deploy my Flask app on GitHub Pages. I've scoured the web, but there doesn't seem to be clear documentation on how to do this. Has anyone successfully hosted a Flask app on GitHub Pages? If so, could you please share your approach or any alternatives? I'm open to using other platforms if GitHub Pages isn't the right fit for dynamic Flask apps.

Thanks for your help!

Hi @Ereiqat,

Github Pages is used for hosting static websites -- just frontend, no db, no backend.

If you want to deploy a Flask app, I recommend either PythonAnywhere or Heroku Render.

Or you can refer to this repo and find a hosting service that supports Flask.

You can read more on:

• Render: Deploy a Flask App
• PythonAnywhere: Setting up Flask App
