Mini Page

A Flask-powered single-page web application that showcases four agricultural digital tools through an interactive card interface. The page supports Italian and English and serves local videos, a PDF, and an embedded GP widget.

Implementation

Stack

Layer	Technology
Backend	Python 3.13, Flask 3.1.3
Frontend	Vanilla HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (no build step)
i18n	Custom translation module (`src/i18n.py`)

How It Works

Flask renders index.html with the appropriate translation set, selected via the ?lang= query parameter (it by default, en also supported).
The page displays a banner and four clickable cards. Each card click triggers a JavaScript modal overlay that loads one of three content types:
- Video — plays a local .mp4 file via <video>
- Iframe — embeds the GP widget
- PDF — displays a local PDF via <iframe>
All static assets (images, videos, CSS, PDF) are served directly by Flask from src/resources/.

Requirements

Python >= 3.13
uv package manager (strongly recommended)
Internal VPN — must be active for the GP widget (Phenological Recognition card) service

Without an active VPN connection, Card 1 (Phenological Recognition) will not function.

How to Run

1. Install dependencies

uv sync

2. Start the Flask server

uv run python src/main.py

3. Open the application

URL	Language
`http://localhost:5000/`	Italian (default)
