I read a post from https://github.com/eisen-dev/eisen_engine/issues/35, it mention the flask.ext.restful import Resource
Should I use from flask-restful import Resource?

Treehouse Guest TeacherYeah, Flask recently had a big shift where they recommended people use from package_name import resource instead of from flask.ext.package import resource. I liked the latter method better, honestly, 'cause it felt more formal. But, regardless of that, that shift came after all of the courses were recorded, so they're now "wrong".

from flask_restful import Resource
Check it out and let me know.

Courses Plus Student 3,322 PointsOkay, good then because if follow the tutorial and as well downloaded project.zip it still refer to "flask.ext.restful import Resource"
Daniel Santos
34,969 PointsRight, probably that is because when Kenneth Love recorded this, flask.ext.restful was still in use. You know, something I've learned with time is that we, software developer, need to quickly adapt to changes, and this a great example of those moments. This is part of the field. Good luck and happy coding!
