Flask-RESTX is an extension for Flask that adds support for quickly building REST APIs. Flask-RESTX encourages best practices with minimal setup. If you are familiar with Flask, Flask-RESTX should be easy to pick up. It provides a coherent collection of decorators and tools to describe your API and expose its documentation properly (using Swagger).
Flask-RESTX is a community driven fork of Flask-RESTPlus
The community has decided to fork the project due to lack of response from the original author @noirbizarre. We have been discussing this eventuality for a long time.
Things evolved a bit since that discussion and a few of us have been granted maintainers access to the github project, but only the original author has access rights on the PyPi project. As such, we been unable to make any actual releases. To prevent this project from dying out, we have forked it to continue development and to support our users.
Flask-RESTX requires Python 3.8+.
