A small Python & Flask sample app that can be run on Cloud Foundry.

To deploy, just run cf push from the root directory.

The app is deployed to Cloud Foundry and the Python buildpack will run. This installs the version of Python listed in runtime.txt and all the dependencies listed in requirements.txt. It then sees the Procfile and uses this command to start the application.

The Procfile is using gunicorn, which is preferred for production setups. If you don't want to use gunicorn, you could simply replace the command there with python app.py to run the app directly.

The config.py file is enabling DEBUG mode for Flask. You don't normally want to do this, but it's helpful for this example so it's enabled.

The app.py code has various endpoints you can use for debugging & exploration. See the comments in the code for explanations of what they do.
