    After the maintainer of flask-jwt stopped updating his package, flask-jwt-extended was started as a new project. The author originally wanted to extend flask-jwt but instead had to create a new project. Like flask-jwt, flask-jwt-extended is opinionated, but takes things to the next level. The flask-jwt-exetended extension is very full featured and eminently configurable. It is an excellent package with a lot of activity and support.

    The error you're seeing is coming from the PyJWT library, from this line, I think. jwt.encode(..) returns a string, which does not have a .decode(..) attribute/method.
