You can check the <a href="https://github.com/eslam5464/Fastapi-Template/tree/master/docs" rel="noopener noreferrer">docs</a> folder for a walkthrough of the architecture and code.</p> <h1> Highlights </h1> <ul> <li>Token authentication using JWT with secure password hashing</li> <li>Async SQLAlchemy v2 integration with PostgreSQL</li> <li>Database migrations using Alembic</li> <li>Organized folder structure with clear separation for routes, schemas, services, and repositories</li> <li>Structured logging with Loguru</li> <li>Ready-to-use .env configuration and environment management</li> <li>Pre-commit hooks and code formatting</li> <li>Example cloud storage integration using Backblaze B2</li> </ul> <h1> Why did I build it? </h1> <p>Having worked on numerous APIs for backend systems, i wanted to remove the time that is consumed to create the folder structure every time i start a project for FastAPI.</p> <h1> Note: </h1> <p>Feel free to edit it to match your tone, add any screenshots or code snippets you want, and adjust the bullet points to emphasise what you care about most.</p> <p>If you think something is missing, needs refactoring, or could be better structured, I’d love to hear your thoughts in a comment below or open a PR on Github.</p> fastapi sqlalchemy python
