Welcome to this section on Flask-JWT-Extended!
Flask-JWT-Extended works in very much a similar way to Flask-JWT—but it's a little bit more complicated.
Because of that, it also adds a bunch more functionality that can be really useful. One of those is token refresh.
We'll be learning about the differences between Flask-JWT and Flask-JWT-Extended in this section, as well as learning about the various extra features it gives us.
Every lecture in this section has the code available in GitHub, and also as a download. Feel free to check the code out online or by downloading it!
The code is always in two parts: a start and an end part.
The starting code will be exactly what I've got on my screen at the start of the video.
The end code will be exactly what I've got on my screen at the end of the video.
That way, if anything is unclear, you can cross-check your code against mine every step of the way!
Happy coding!
Kind regards,
