🚀 Building a Multi-API Dashboard in Flask — And Releasing It Open-Source

This content originally appeared on DEV Community and was authored by Frank Bwalya

Integrating multiple external APIs doesn’t have to be messy.

This project wraps external services (News, Crypto, Weather, GitHub) through a clean, scalable architecture using:

🧩 Modular Flask blueprints

🗂️ Service-layer API abstractions

💽 SQLAlchemy models + migrations

🎨 A responsive, glass-style dashboard UI

⚙️ Application factory pattern for maintainability

💡 Why I Built This

Working across multiple APIs gets chaotic fast — different formats, rate limits, timeouts, auth models.
So I created a structure that any developer can extend without fighting their project.

🔧 What You Can Do With It

Add your own API integrations effortlessly

Use it as a learning resource for Flask architecture

Build a personal dashboard

Use it as a foundation for a production-grade backend

Feel free to fork, break, improve, or extend it.
And if you’ve got ideas for new modules — I’d love to collaborate.
