What do you get when you run: `cd /Python36/Scripts/` and `dir` — Anupam, May 05 '18 at 14:15
Shouldn't the command line be `C:\Python36\Scripts\pip install PyMongo`? — phd, May 05 '18 at 14:43

Flask-PyMongo is a different package than PyMongo. It looks like you've only installed PyMongo, but are trying to use Flask-PyMongo in your application. You should run C:/Python36/Scripts/pip install Flask-PyMongo to install Flask-PyMongo.

You installed PyMongo and tried to import PyMongo from flask_pymongo.

PyMongo is a package to work with MongoDB. To make this work more efficient, Flask just made an extension named "Flask-PyMongo". So, we can directly import "Flask-PyMongo" and start working with MongoDB in a very efficient way.

You can think "Flask-PyMongo" as a wrapper of "PyMongo".
