I’m trying to create a web app with flask and most tutorials I can find recommend using flask-login, however the last release was around two and a half years ago and the last commit was nine months ago. The only statement I could find is this issue where the maintainer says it’s still maintained but there has only been one new commit since then. Is it still safe to use, if not, what alternatives are there?

    Yeah, it’s just mature software.

    There’s not much to depth to flask login; it’s a small convenience layer. You can roll your own user management with werkzeug’s password_hash and cookies if you want.
