Learn FastAPI - Python API

Master FastAPI, the modern, high-performance web framework. Built on Starlette and Pydantic, FastAPI delivers Node.js-level speed with Python's elegance. Whether you're new to backend development or leveling up your Python skills, this is your complete path to building production-ready APIs.

COMPLETE CURRICULUM — Learn Everything In One App

FastAPI Foundations:
- What is FastAPI? — Why it's the fastest Python framework, ASGI vs WSGI, OpenAPI standards
- Installation & First App — FastAPI + Uvicorn setup, your first endpoint in 5 minutes
- Path Operations — Routes, GET/POST/PUT/DELETE, decorators, JSON responses
- Interactive API Docs — Automatic Swagger UI & ReDoc documentation
- Understanding Async — async/await, concurrency, non-blocking I/O explained simply

Routing & Data Handling:
- Path Parameters — Typed URL variables with automatic validation
- Query Parameters — Filtering, sorting, pagination with defaults
- Request & Response Models — Headers, cookies, JSON, status codes
- Pydantic Data Validation — Type-safe schemas, automatic error handling, BaseModel

Advanced FastAPI Patterns:
- Async Programming — High-performance patterns, concurrency, background tasks
- Dependency Injection — Reusable dependencies, sub-dependencies, scopes
- Middleware — CORS, custom hooks, request/response interceptors
- Database Integration — SQLAlchemy, SQLModel, relational database patterns
- NoSQL Databases — MongoDB, Redis caching, document & key-value stores

Security & Production:
- Security Hardening — Best practices for production API protection
- API Versioning — Version strategies, deprecation, lifecycle management
- GraphQL with FastAPI — Strawberry integration, queries, mutations

DevOps & Real-World Deployment:
- API Gateways — Nginx, Traefik, reverse proxies, load balancing
- DevOps & Deployment — Docker, CI/CD, cloud deployment strategies
- Real Production Systems — Scalability, monitoring, logging
- Data Engineering — ETL pipelines, analytics APIs
- AI/ML Integration — Serve machine learning models with FastAPI endpoints
