16. Architecture - Back End
● Flask web app:
○ Handles part 2 of Oauth2 - logs user into github & receives access token
○ If login == SUCCESS: create instance with all relevant JSON data from Github API
■ Use requests module to receive API data
○ Pass instance dictionary into frontend & serve up HTML page containing user info and ranking
○ If login == FAILURE: redirect to front page
● Failures:
○ Oauth - should’ve started implementing earlier.
○ No time to change approach when we started discovering better implementations
