Flask route handler that renders the main landing page containing a form for the meeting minutes application.

Purpose

This function serves as the entry point for the web application, rendering the index.html template which likely contains a form for uploading meeting recordings or documents to generate meeting minutes. It handles GET requests to the root URL ('/') of the Flask application.

Source Code

def index():
    """Main page with the form"""
    return render_template('index.html')

Return Value

Returns a rendered HTML template (index.html) as a string response. The render_template function processes the Jinja2 template and returns the resulting HTML content to be sent to the client's browser.

Dependencies

• flask

Required Imports

from flask import Flask
from flask import render_template

Usage Example

from flask import Flask, render_template

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
    """Main page with the form"""
    return render_template('index.html')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

Best Practices

• Ensure the templates directory exists and contains index.html before running the application
• This function should only handle GET requests; POST requests should be handled by separate routes
• Consider adding error handling for missing templates using try-except blocks
• The route decorator should be applied before the function definition
• For production, ensure Flask app is properly configured with secret keys and security settings
• Template files should be placed in a 'templates' folder at the same level as the Flask app file
