Is the template folder needed for the tutorial?

I think the tutorial expects you to create the templates folder.

Yes, I did so, and also fixed a couple of typos in my files.  It's all working as expected, now.



But note that earlier in the official tutorial, they say that they aren't using templates for the purposes of this tutorial.


So I'm not sure if the template folder references were intentional for version 3 ; or if they are a carryover from tutorials for previous versions.


In either case, they should explicitly ask the user to create the folders, imo.
