FastAPI Modern Development
FastAPI is the standard for modern Python APIs, offering high performance (comparable to Go/Node.js) and automatic documentation.
Type Safety (Pydantic)
- Schemas: Use Pydantic models for request/response validation and serialization.
- Automatic Docs: OpenAPI (Swagger) and Redoc are generated automatically based on type hints.
Asynchronous Support
async def: High concurrency with Python'sasyncioloop.- Dependency Injection: A powerful system for managing database sessions, auth, and logic.
Best Practices
- Strict Typing: Use Python 3.10+ union types (
int | None) andAnnotatedfor cleaner dependencies. - Error Handling: Use
HTTPExceptionwith consistent JSON structures.
