I want to create a web form using flask, js and html:

index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">

    <title>Python Flask Dynamic Select Box using Flask, JS and txt </title>

</h2></p>
<pre> 
{{ text }} 
</pre> 

</body>
</html>

form.py

from flask import Flask, render_template 
 
app = Flask(__name__) 
 
@app.route('/') 
def index(): 
  with open('QA.txt', 'r', encoding = 'utf-8') as f: 
    return render_template('index.html',  text=f.read())

PS Looked at the source code here.
I'm trying to do the same, only without a database, but from a file. What should be added to the code?
