The code above defines my app.py where an ajax request sends an image captured from the user's camera to the route. The image is encoded and written into a new file for each user. To enable this functionality for multiple users, a unique file name is generated using uuid for each user image.
Every time a user makes a request to the route, a new jpg file will be created and saved locally.
