Hey Derek, that was great that you could post the example
I'm a beginner and couldn't make it work in the "/houses" directory so moved everything to "/default" directory. Just wasn't sure of things like if houses.py had to be in "/houses" directory, and things like that. It works fantastic and it has just the right amount of bare-bones functionality to help people get the main points. Thanks!
