 Flask-COMBO-JSONAPI
 ###################
 
 Flask-COMBO-JSONAPI is a flask extension for building REST APIs. It combines the power of `Flask-Restless <https://flask-restless.readthedocs.io/>`_ and the flexibility of `Flask-RESTful <https://flask-restful.readthedocs.io/>`_ around a strong specification `JSONAPI 1.0 <http://jsonapi.org/>`_. This framework is designed to quickly build REST APIs and fit the complexity of real life projects with legacy data and multiple data storages.
 
-The main goal is to make it flexible using `plugin system <https://github.com/AdCombo/combojsonapi/blob/develop/docs/en/create_plugins.rst>`_
