## What it is
Flask-OAuthlib is a Flask extension for interacting with remote OAuth-enabled applications, supporting OAuth 1.0a/1.0/1.1 and OAuth2 clients as well as building OAuth providers. It is now in maintenance mode, with the README directing users to its successor, Authlib.

## Use cases
- add oauth login to a flask app
- build an oauth2 provider in flask
- consume remote oauth apis from flask
- replace flask-oauth with oauth2 support
- issue bearer tokens from a flask server

## When to choose
- you are maintaining a legacy Flask app already built on Flask-OAuthlib
- you need OAuth1 provider support with HMAC/RSA signatures

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - use Authlib instead
- you need actively developed OAuth2 client/server features
- you use a framework other than Flask

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: auth, http-client, middleware
- domain: web-development, security, apis
- platform: python
- tags: flask, oauth, oauth2, oauth-client, oauth-provider, deprecated-in-favor-of-authlib, web-server
