FastAPI is a modern, fast, and high-performance Python web framework for building APIs. It is based on standard Python type hints, which allows automatic data validation, serialization, and interactive API documentation. FastAPI is designed for building production-ready RESTful APIs and microservices with minimal code while ensuring high performance. It’s widely used in data-driven applications, machine learning deployment, and backend services.
Installation:
pip install fastapi uvicorn
Example usage:
from fastapi import FastAPI
app = FastAPI()
@app.get("/")
def read_root():
return {"message": "Hello FastAPI!"}
Run the app with:
uvicorn filename:app --reload

3 Project Ideas:
- Build a REST API for a blog or content management system.
- Develop a backend service to serve machine learning model predictions.
- Create a microservice architecture for a larger application with multiple APIs.
