Thank you so much for the kind words! It's motivating to see people following my challenge and engaging with it!

Yeah I'm leaning towards sticking with Flask because there are many unknowns already with this project, so I want to at least have a base I am comfortable with. I do keep hearing great things about Django, which makes me really want to learn more about it and try to get more familiar with it. Part of me wants to use it just to challenge myself as well.

I didn't know Heroku was a wrapper for AWS! Admittedly, I have done little research into Heroku, as it kind of just worked. I have only used the free features of Heroku so far, so the pricing hasn't affected me yet.

I was considering looking into AWS certification later in this challenge if I had the time; maybe I will learn to deploy via AWS after I have finished my Study Aid app? That may be a good time to learn about Docker as well!

Thank you so much for the information. Hearing about the tools that I'm using from the perspective of somebody who uses them in the industry is invaluable.

Parting question: Do you know of anybody who uses Flask professionally? Have you heard much about Flask for professional use?
