Refactoring view methods with blueprints

[josh-thurston]

Cannot figure out why everything stops working at the moment when I switch app.py over to use blueprints. I am copying what you do in the video, but when i run app.py, I get a 404 return.

As soon as i switch back to original app.py setup, this work again.

Ignore comment. I looked at the code here in the repo. I noticed that you added more to app.py that was not covered in the video. I added the new lines of code and everything started working.

Hi @josh-thurston Glad you found the fix. Here is what's happening.

If you just run the app.py file, everything works as expected. If PyCharm somehow detects this as a flask project, it uses $ flask run which does NOT run the main() method. That's why you see the minor tweak in the code to still configure the system.
