### Features
Flask-JWT-Extended not only adds support for using JSON Web Tokens (JWT) to Flask for protecting views,
but also many helpful (and **optional**) features  built in to make working with JSON Web Tokens
easier. These include:

* Support for adding custom claims to JSON Web Tokens
* Custom claims validation on received tokens
* Creating tokens from complex objects or complex object from received tokens
* [Refresh tokens](https://auth0.com/blog/refresh-tokens-what-are-they-and-when-to-use-them/)
* Token freshness and separate view decorators to only allow fresh tokens
* Token revoking/blacklisting
* Storing tokens in cookies and CSRF protection

### Local Development
We require 100% code coverage in our unit tests. You can run the tests locally
with `tox` which will print out a code coverage report. Creating a pull request
will run the tests against python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and PyPy.
```
$ tox
```

We also require features to be well documented. After installing the requirements,
you can generate a local copy of documentation by going to the `docs` directory
and running:
```
$ make clean && make html
```
