I'm trying to return'Hello Flask'
and it's giving me route should be under app variable. not sure where I went wrong
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def index():
return "Hello Flask"
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run(port=8000, host="0.0.0.0")

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def index():
return "Hello Flask"
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run(port=8000, host="0.0.0.0")
That small adjustment should make your code pass the challenge. Let me know if you have any questions!
