Where to deploy a flask application ?

[u/Menxii]

Hello,

I have a flask app + a script than runs with a crontab to populate data into a database.

I was wondering, is it better to deploy the app on a linux cloud server ? Or should I use a web hosting plateforms that supports flask out of the box ?

Hiya!

I would recommend Vercel (vercel.com), I've hosted over 30 apps on it and has not charged me a single penny. It would require a bit of configuration to host flask apps, however it never takes you more than 2 minutes, create vercel.json then upload it to github (or other Git providers if you would like to) then boom, lightspeed app straight on the cloud, connect any subdomain or domain for free, a completely W to my life.

I can expand on if you want me to, I REALLY recommend it.

i've been trying to get reddit karma so I can post in certain subreddits.. please upvote IF you found it helpful. thanks!
