This Makefile defines a set of tasks for a Flask application.

run: Starts the Flask application by running app.py with Python.

test: Runs all unit tests within the tests directory using unittest module.

coverage: Measures and reports code coverage. It runs all tests with coverage tool, generates a report in the terminal, creates an HTML report in htmlcov directory, and opens the report in the browser.

coverage-single: Runs code coverage for a specific test file tests/test_app_single.py. This is useful for targeted coverage analysis.

install: Installs all required dependencies listed in requirements.txt.

curl: Sends a POST request to the Flask application’s /postdata endpoint with a JSON payload, simulating a user interaction. This is likely used for testing specific API routes.

Overall: The Makefile provides a convenient way to manage common development tasks for the Flask application, including running, testing, coverage analysis, installing dependencies, and interacting with the API.
