A simple example of using an HTML range slider to send values to a Flask server with no JavaScript using a form submit. This file is a starter challenge. Used for Google's Code Next Team Edge Web course.

Term 1, Lab 3 Flask with Hardware

Setup:

1. Clone the project to a Raspberry Pi.
2. Make sure you have installed Python Flask.
3. Fromt the Linux Terminal, cd into the directory you cloned the repo into.
4. run app.py: $ python app.py. to launch the Flask server and go to the specified URL to open in a client browser.
5. Test that the slider works when you click "Submit".

Challenge

1. Connect your Pi to a Servo using following a pinout example from GPIO Zero.
2. In app.py, complete the POST method function that receives the value from the HTML slider so it moves the servo to the desired angle, only between 0-180 degrees.
3. Make sure to import the necessary libraries.
4. Test and debug.
