Look no further if you want to learn FastAPI. The book lets you learn exhaustively yet quickly and is very well organized with a lot of use cases. And it covers everything about it, from the first steps, to the most complex scenarios, while also focusing on PyTest integration.I personally keep it with me so that I can go back to the things I need, as the book is also very easy to search.I love how also examples on ML and LLM applications are given!
