FastAPI

Official FastAPI skill to write code with best practices, keeping up to date with new versions and features.

Quick Reference

• Serve frontend apps: use app.frontend() or router.frontend() for built frontend assets; see Serve Frontend Apps.
• Server-Sent Events (SSE): use response_class=EventSourceResponse and yield; see Streaming and the streaming reference.
• JSON Lines and byte streaming: see the streaming reference.
• OpenTelemetry: use FastAPI's native traces, metrics, and logs. See OpenTelemetry.
• Dependencies: use Annotated[..., Depends(...)]; see Dependency Injection and the dependency injection reference for yield, scopes, and class dependencies.
• Response models: prefer return types; use response_model when the public response schema differs from the internal return value; see the response reference.
• Pydantic models: do not use ellipsis or RootModel; see the Pydantic reference.
• Routing: declare router-level prefix, tags, and shared dependencies on the APIRouter; see the path operation reference.
• Tooling and related libraries: use uv, Ruff, ty, Asyncer, SQLModel, and HTTPX when applicable; see the other tools reference.
