QuickCRUD — Flask + SQLite CRUD REST API

QuickCRUD is the clearest possible starting point for a REST API in Python — one clean file, full CRUD, and no setup.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Full CRUD — POST / GET / GET by id / PUT / DELETE on an "items" resource

• SQLite, zero config — a file-based database, no server to run

• SQLAlchemy ORM — clean models, no raw SQL

• JSON everywhere — structured responses and errors (400 / 404)

• Automatic created_at timestamps

• Single, readable app.py — perfect to learn from or build on

• README with copy-paste curl examples

QUICKSTART

pip install -r requirements.txt → python app.py → live at http://localhost:5000

Great as a learning resource, a quick prototype backend, or a base to extend with your own resources.
