Running a simple Flask app raises OSError: [WinError 10038] An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket. The page is not served in the browser. What does the error mean? How do I fix it?
from flask import Flask, render_template
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def index():
return 'Hello, World!'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(debug=True)
