Course Description
This comprehensive course provides a practical introduction to building modern, production-ready RESTful APIs using FastAPI, one of the fastest-growing Python web frameworks. Designed for developers who want to build robust, performant, and well-documented APIs, the course covers the complete API development lifecycle from design and implementation to security, testing, and deployment.
The curriculum covers FastAPI fundamentals, routing, request validation, dependency injection, authentication and authorization, database integration with SQLAlchemy and PostgreSQL, testing, and deployment strategies. Using a hands-on approach, learners will build a fully functional REST API from scratch, implementing best practices for API design, documentation, and security. By the end of the course, participants will be able to design, build, secure, and deploy production-ready APIs for web and mobile applications.
Prerequisite note: This course requires fundamental Python programming knowledge including variables, functions, and classes. Participants should have a basic understanding of web concepts (HTTP, REST), JSON, and SQL. Basic Git knowledge is helpful but not required.
Course Outline
This course is structured into 10 core modules, each carefully designed to build progressively on the previous one.
