flask: Show the routes for the app.
$ flask routes
try on your machine

The command "flask routes" is used in Flask, which is a popular Python web framework, to display a list of all the routes defined in a Flask application.

A route in Flask is a URL pattern that corresponds to a specific function or view in the application. It is used to define different endpoints that users can access through their web browser or other HTTP clients.

When you run the "flask routes" command, Flask scans all the routes defined in your application and displays information about each route, such as the URL, the associated function or view, and the HTTP methods it supports (e.g., GET, POST, etc.).

This command is useful during development to check if all the routes are correctly defined and to easily see the structure and organization of the application's routes. It can help you debug and troubleshoot your routes by providing an overview of the available endpoints and their corresponding functions.
