I am also having trouble deploying this app. I tried on PythonAnywhere and Heroku. I am getting a 404 on both. Anyone any ideas?

This is due to not calling init_app in manage.py. I fixed this by changing manage.py to be:

# This file starts the WSGI web application.
# - Heroku starts gunicorn, which loads Procfile, which starts manage.py
# - Developers can run it from the command line: python runserver.py

from app.init_app import app, init_app, manager

init_app(app)

# Start a development web server, processing extra command line parameters. E.g.:
# - python manage.py init_db
# - python manage.py runserver
if __name__ == "__main__":
    manager.run()

This worked for me.

Thank you.
