This example presents a Flask web application that displays nested text status entries as threaded HTML lists. It shows how a tree of toots, loaded from a JSON file, is rendered for either all authors or filtered by a specific author. The code uses the Flask framework to define routes and render templates, while custom Python classes, `Toot` and `TootsManager`, manage the hierarchy and generate the nested `<ul>` and `<li>` markup. An `AuthorsManager` handles author lookups, linking each toot to its poster. The visualization relies on the application’s server-side rendering, not on JavaScript libraries.
