### Wikstraktor Server
-If you want wikstraktor as a server, you need to install [flask](https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.0.x/installation/), and best practice is to do so in a [virtual environment](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html#module-venv).
+If you want wikstraktor as a server, you need to install [flask](https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.0.x/installation/) and [flask-cors](https://flask-cors.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), and best practice is to do so in a [virtual environment](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html#module-venv).
The following commands are extracted from the aforementionned documentation, it is probably more secure to click on the link and follow the modules documentation :
```bash
python3 -m venv wikstraktorenv #create wikstraktorenv environment
. wikstraktorenv/bin/activate #activate environment
pip install Flask #install Flask
+pip install -U flask-cors #install Flask cors
```
