In this course, you will master FastAPI, one of the most efficient frameworks for building APIs. Starting with an introduction to API fundamentals and the REST architecture, you'll quickly move to creating your first FastAPI application. The course then delves into organizing and structuring your project, ensuring your API is scalable and maintainable. You will learn to implement social media features, handle posts and comments, and manage various aspects of API routing.
As you progress, you'll learn pytest, a robust testing framework. You'll write tests for your FastAPI applications, ensuring your code is reliable and bug-free. The following sections focus on integrating async databases, configuring environments, and leveraging Pydantic for configuration management. You will also explore logging, user authentication with JWTs, managing many-to-many relationships, and confirming user emails through various tools and services.
The course concludes with advanced topics such as file uploads, background tasks for image generation, and deploying FastAPI applications. You'll learn to update your projects to the latest versions of Pydantic, deploy your app to platforms like Render, and manage errors with Sentry. The course also includes continuous integration with GitHub Actions, streamlining and automating your development process.
