Kentico Kontent sample Flask application

This is a sample Flask app that uses the Kentico Kontent Python SDK to retrieve content from Kentico Kontent.

This application uses the shared Dancing Goat sample project within Kentico Kontent. If you don't have your own Sample Project, any administrator of a Kentico Kontent subscription can generate one.

If you find a bug in the sample or have a feature request, please submit a GitHub issue.
