17,880 PointsYou should add the route without the name argument, so that the view is called even if no argument is set in the URL.
Try this:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
@app.route('/<name>')
def hello(name='Treehouse'):
return 'Hello {}'.format(name)
Hope it helps ;)
