### Lecture steps
Each lecture has its own screenshot in `docs/images/` (made by `docs/images/capture.py` with a headless browser, so no window opens on your desktop) and a wiki page that explains what the lecture taught.
**Lecture 1: frontend, backend and the request-response cycle.** The client asks, the Flask server prepares the answer, the database supplies data.
![Lecture 1: client, server and database](docs/images/lecture-01.png)
**Lecture 2: the first Flask server.** `hello.py` serves "Hello, World!" from the home route. Start it with `flask --app flask_day_54.presentation.hello run` (or set `FLASK_APP`: `export FLASK_APP=flask_day_54.presentation.hello` on macOS and Linux, `$env:FLASK_APP = "flask_day_54.presentation.hello"` in PowerShell, `set FLASK_APP=flask_day_54.presentation.hello` in Command Prompt, then `flask run`).

## Artifact Under Review
- Instance reviewed: [MIL-002]
- Checklist used: [QC-PY-001]
- Scope: full review of the source and tests delivered by MIL-002 (src/, tests/)
- Language and domain: n/a
- Language reviewer: none (the reviewer reads English and knows the IT domain)
- Mode: autonomous, not independent (AI as stand-in for S01)
## Checklist Results
| # | Criterion | Status | Evidence/Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | Packages, modules, functions, variables, classes and constants follow PEP 8 casing (`snake_case`, `PascalCase`, `UPPER_SNAKE`) | Pass | Modules, functions and constants use snake_case / UPPER_SNAKE; classes none or PascalCase. |
| 2 | Names state purpose in the domain's language; no unexplained abbreviations, no single-letter names outside tiny scopes | Pass | Names follow the lecture and the domain dictionary. |
| 3 | Code is produced by the project's formatter and passes its linter with no unexplained suppressions | Pass | `ruff format` leaves files unchanged and `ruff check` (E, F, I, B, UP) passes; configured in pyproject.toml. |
| 4 | Every function and method signature is type-annotated, including `-> None` | Pass | Every function signature is annotated, including `-> None`. |
| 5 | No bare `except:`, no swallowed exceptions; specific exceptions are raised and the cause is kept (`raise ... from`) | Pass | No bare except and no swallowed exception. |
| 6 | No mutable default arguments and no shadowed builtins | Pass | No mutable defaults; no builtin shadowed. |
| 7 | Files, locks and connections are managed with context managers | N-A | No file, lock or connection is opened. |
| 8 | Public modules, classes and functions have docstrings that say what, not how | Pass | Module and public names carry docstrings plus Doxygen comments. |
| 9 | Logging uses `logging`, not `print`; no secrets or personal data in log output | Pass | print and logging are not used; no secrets handled. |
| 10 | Classes and operations trace to the Design Class Diagram they implement; deviations are recorded | N-A | No DCD exists in this project; the layered layout is recorded in ADR-0001. |
| 11 | Tests exist for new behaviour, are named for the behaviour, and do not depend on order or the network | Pass | pytest tests named for behaviour; no order or network dependence. |
| 12 | Type checker runs in strict mode without errors; `Any` is justified in a comment | N-A | No type checker is configured (optional criterion). |
| 13 | Dependencies are declared and pinned in the project's dependency file, none unused | Pass | Dependencies are declared in pyproject.toml; none unused (Flask is the optional `web` extra). |
| 14 | Each piece of knowledge (a business rule, constant, format, validation or query) is defined in one place; code is merged only where it expresses the same knowledge, not where it merely looks alike | Pass | Each constant is defined once in the constants.py of its layer. |
| 15 | Imports point inward: business-rule modules import no framework, database, UI or delivery-mechanism code, and there are no import cycles | Pass | `domain` imports no framework or outer layer; imports point inward; no cycles. |
| 16 | SOLID holds: a class or module has one reason to change; new behaviour is added by extension, not by editing a type test in several places; subclasses honour the contract of their base; protocols are narrow; high-level code depends on protocols or abstract types and receives its implementations | Pass | Small modules with one reason to change; no type tests or subclass hierarchies. |
| 17 | Source is laid out in the layers and folders of the clean architecture folder structure (`domain`, `application`, `infrastructure`, `presentation` packages under `src/`, and `unit`, `integration` and `e2e` under `tests/`), in `snake_case`, and imports between the layers point inward | Pass | Layers domain, application, infrastructure, presentation under src/flask_day_54; tests in unit and e2e (ADR-0001); no layer merged. |
| 18 | File and folder names are English, contain no space and no character outside letters, digits, `-`, `_` and `.`, and follow the casing of the language for files | Pass | English snake_case file names without spaces. |
## Overall Verdict
Go — All applicable mandatory criteria pass.
