It wraps the official Swagger UI (currently version 5.32.12) and exposes it at a configurable URL path, letting developers and API consumers explore endpoints, try requests, and view schemas without leaving your app.\n\nThe package is lightweight\u2014it depends only on Flask\u2014and stays current with Swagger UI releases through an automated weekly update process. You configure it by passing a specification URL (local or remote) and optional Swagger UI settings to a factory function, then register the resulting blueprint with your Flask app. It supports standard Swagger UI configuration options that can be JSON-serialized, including OAuth2 parameters, but does not support plugins or custom function parameters.","worth_installing":"Yes. Low install friction, permissive MIT license, active maintenance (weekly updates), no known vulnerabilities, and a single Flask dependency make this a straightforward choice for adding Swagger UI to Flask apps. The trade-off is that plugins and custom function parameters are not supported\u2014if you need those, you would need to serve Swagger UI separately or fork the package."},"id":"flask-swagger-ui","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flask-swagger-ui","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flask-swagger-ui.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/flask-swagger-ui/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-03","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"flask-swagger-ui","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Swagger UI blueprint for Flask"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":826336,"position":4961,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"5.32.12"}
