## Overview

This is a small Flask web app demonstrating a containerized app-to-MySQL workflow. A browser request reaches the `/` route, which retries database connection setup, creates the page-views table if needed, inserts a row, counts rows, and returns JSON. Docker Compose is documented as starting the app and database on a private network with persistent storage. The Compose file was not sampled, so its internal configuration details are not represented.

Main entry points: [`app.py`](https://github.com/kartikey1603/containerized-web-app/blob/main/app.py) (Home route), [`docker-compose.yml`](https://github.com/kartikey1603/containerized-web-app/blob/main/docker-compose.yml) (Compose environment)

## Components

### Web application

- [Home route](https://github.com/kartikey1603/containerized-web-app/blob/main/app.py): `app.py`
- [Connection retries](https://github.com/kartikey1603/containerized-web-app/blob/main/app.py): `app.py`

### Database service

- **MySQL**

### Container runtime

- [Compose environment](https://github.com/kartikey1603/containerized-web-app/blob/main/docker-compose.yml): `docker-compose.yml`

### Other components

- **Browser**

## Connections

- Browser → Home route: requests
- Home route → Connection retries: opens connection
- Connection retries → MySQL: connects
- Home route → MySQL: creates, writes, counts
- Home route → Browser: returns JSON
- Compose environment → Home route: starts app
- Compose environment → MySQL: starts database
