The backbone behind NarReddit's Web App, this repository houses the containerized backend architecture that powers our seamless conversion of top-rated Reddit posts into engaging video content.

• Containerized Design: The entire backend architecture is containerized for easier deployment, scalability, and separation of concerns.

• Flask Container (API): The primary entrypoint to the video creation service, app.py, acts as an API endpoint, catering to the frontend requests and initiating background tasks.

• Task Queue with RQ and Redis: To handle intensive tasks like video rendering, we utilize RQ (Redis Queue) which provides a lightweight, Pythonic interface for background job management. Redis acts as the backbone store for this task management, ensuring speedy task delegation and retrieval.

• Worker Container: worker.py is our dedicated worker service, responsible for processing tasks dispatched by the Flask container. With a containerized approach, we can easily scale the number of workers based on demand.
