would this work to create just the users table?
User.metadata.create_all(engine)
if not, how would I do that?
Best,

Try Base.metadata.create_all(tables=[User])
Doc entry:
sqlalchemy.schema.MetaData.create_all(bind=None, tables=None, checkfirst=True)
Create all tables stored in this metadata.
Conditional by default, will not attempt to recreate tables already present in the target database.
Parameters
bind – A Connectable used to access the database; if None, uses the existing bind on this MetaData, if any.
tables – Optional list of Table objects, which is a subset of the total tables in the MetaData (others are ignored).
checkfirst – Defaults to True, don’t issue CREATEs for tables already present in the target database.
