FastAPI & Stripe - Free eCommerce Starter

Hello Coders!

This article presents an open-source Mini eCommerce project that uses Stripe for payments and FastAPI as the backend. The eCommerce section content is loaded from JSON and the information is managed by a simple routing logic. The source code can be found on GitHub under the MIT License (free for commercial or eLearning activities). Thanks for reading!

Another useful feature of this project is the Bootstrap 5 design, provided by Creative-Tim. Soft UI Design, the UI Kit used to style the pages, comes with 50+ components and reusable widgets for at least a decent eCommerce project.

✨ How to use it

The fastest way to start the product and play around with the codebase is to access the repository and follow the build instructions presented on the README file.


👉 Step #1 - Clone the project from the public repository:



$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/ecommerce-fastapi-stripe.git
$ cd ecommerce-fastapi-stripe


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

👉 Step #2 - Rename env.sample to .env and provide the Stripe Secrets



# Stripe Secrets
STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=pk_test_PUBLIC_KEY_HERE
STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=pk_test_SECRET_KEY_HERE


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

👉 Step #3 - Install modules inside a virtual environment



$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

👉 Step #4 - Start the app
