## Overview

This is a small Flask photo-restoration web app. A user opens the upload page, submits an allowed image, and the Flask handler saves it before calling the restoration function. That function sends the image to Replicate’s Microsoft photo-restoration model; the returned result is passed into the page template for display. The graph focuses on this request-to-result path. Source excerpts show the route, file handling, and model call; the template contents were not sampled, so its detailed behavior is not represented.

Main entry points: [`main.py`](https://github.com/mohammadhassan-panahi/photo-restoration/blob/master/main.py) (Flask routes), [`photo_restorer.py`](https://github.com/mohammadhassan-panahi/photo-restoration/blob/master/photo_restorer.py) (Restoration client), [`templates/index.html`](https://github.com/mohammadhassan-panahi/photo-restoration/blob/master/templates/index.html) (Upload page), [`static/images`](https://github.com/mohammadhassan-panahi/photo-restoration/tree/master/static/images) (Uploaded images)
