# Flask-Login Tutorial







[](https://github.com/toddbirchard/flasklogin-tutorial/issues)

Add user authentication to your Flask app.
* **Tutorial**: [https://hackersandslackers.com/flask-login-user-authentication/](https://hackersandslackers.com/flask-login-user-authentication/)
* **Demo**: [https://flasklogin.hackersandslackers.app](https://flasklogin.hackersandslackers.app)
## Getting Started
Get set up locally in two steps:
### Environment Variables
Replace the values in **.env.example** with your values and rename this file to **.env**:
* `ENVIRONMENT`: The environment to run your app in (either `development` or `production`).
* `FLASK_DEBUG`: Whether to enable "DEBUG" logging (either `True` or `False`).
* `SECRET_KEY`: Randomly generated string of characters used to encrypt your app's data.
* `SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI`: Connection URI of a SQL database.
* `LESS_BIN`: Path to your local LESS installation via `which lessc` (optional for static assets).
*Remember never to commit secrets saved in .env files to Github.*
### Installation
Get up and running with `make deploy`:
```shell
git clone https://github.com/toddbirchard/flasklogin-tutorial.git
cd flasklogin-tutorial
make deploy
```
