Some kind of secret santa generator, but i refuse to call it that way since i'm more argentinian than chori

Secret Santa Invisible friend

Yet another chapter of the series "Things that should be easy to find in the internet but aren't". This time i'm creating an invisible friend implementation, i thought of this as an opportunity to learn some useful stuff, like Flask, server-side rendering, github pipelines and github projects.

The idea is super simple:

• Create a group
• Generate a link so everybody can join the group without registering and saving its name and email or give the option to create a group manually
• When everybody is ready, trigger the email sending to everybody, with just the name of its invisible friend.
