Flask-Collect
Flask-Collect is an extension for Flask that helps collecting static files.
Serving static files with Flask -- bad idea for production, this tool will help you collect them in one command. It checks application and blueprints for static files and copy them to specific folder (saves related paths).
Docs are available at http://flask-collect.readthedocs.org/. Pull requests with documentation enhancements and/or fixes are awesome and most welcome.
