Answer 1

Install pip as described here: How do I install pip on Windows?

Then do

pip install flask 

That installation tutorial is a bit misleading, it refers to actually running it in a production environment.

Answer 2

First install flask using pip,

pip install Flask 

* If pip is not installed then install pip

Then copy below program (hello.py)

from flask import Flask app = Flask(__name__)  @app.route("/") def hello():     return "Hello World!"  if __name__ == "__main__":     app.run() 

Now, run the program

python hello.py
