Error Running Flask Tutorial: Flaskr App

Having a little trouble running this in my command prompt (I'm in my flaskr directory already).

set FLASK_APP=flaskr set DEBUG_MODE=1 flask run

http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/0.11/tutorial/setup/#tutorial-setup

I've followed all the steps up until now. I've read up on some stuff with virtualenv and stuff, but it hasn't really made sense - should I mess around with it or is there an easier fix?

My output/error log:

Traceback (most recent call last):

You need to install your app as a package on your virtualenv or declare the file extension like FLASK_APP=flaskr.py
