Answer 1

First, I would suggest to take a look at Blueprints http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/blueprints/ This will help to organize the app easily.

Also take a look at http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/api/#flask.current_app flask.current_app, the way how to get your app instance in other modules.

This link also could be helpful on how to organize and build flask app (it is not ideal for sure, but can give you some ideas) - Large-app-how-to.md

Have fun :)
