[Python] What do I get from `flask-bcrypt` that I don't get from plain `bcrypt`?

Why would I use flask-bycrypt to hash user passowrds rather than plain old bcrypt? If the code below is correct I can see that the flask-bcrypt route requires a marginally simpler API, but I can't see what else it gives me. I'm asking because in my current app, if I go down the flask-bcrypt route, I'll have a couple of import issues to resolve and I want to know if it's worth the trouble.

Using flask-bcrypt:

from flask_bcrypt import Bcrypt
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)
bcrypt = Bcrypt(app)
bcrypt.generate_password_hash('12345')


Using bcrypt:

import bcrypt

pw = '12345'.encode('utf-8')
hashed_pw = bcrypt.hashpw(pw, bcrypt.gensalt())
