Build REST APIs For The Modern Web. Learn FastAPI, SQL Database, OAuth2, Pytest, React and Docker

What you’ll learn

Build a complete RESTful API for a delivery management system, adhering to best practices

Define Pydantic models for request and response data validation, ensuring type safety

Connect a FastAPI application to a SQL database (SQLite, PostgreSQL) and integrate with endpoints using dependency injection

Operate on SQL database with SQLModel and define One-to-Many and Many-to-Many SQL Relationships

Manage database schema changes with alembic migrations, upgrade, downgrade and auto-generate revisions

Implement secure authentication using OAuth2 Scheme in a FastAPI application, including email validation, login/logouts and password resets

Send Email and SMS notifications from a FastAPI application triggered by shipment events

Integrate Celery with a FastAPI application to offload time-consuming tasks to a background worker from an API Endpoint

Package a FastAPI Application with Docker and related services using Docker Compose

Deploy a FastAPI Application along with other services

Requirements
