If you're having issues compiling the binary extension, or on a platform where you can't, you can try using the pure Python PyMySQL bindings. Simply pip install pymysql and switch your SQLAlchemy URI to start like this: SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = 'mysql+pymysql://.....' There are some other drivers you could also try.
