Course Description
FastAPI is one of the most exciting Python frameworks for building modern web applications and APIs. It’s fast, beginner-friendly, and packed with features that make backend development easier and more efficient. Whether you’re a student, a Python programmer, or someone looking to explore web development, this course is designed for you.
In this hands-on course, you’ll learn how to build REST APIs with FastAPI step by step. We’ll begin with the basics — environment setup, creating your first API, and understanding how FastAPI processes requests and responses. From there, we’ll dive deeper into real-world essentials like handling user input, validating data with Pydantic, and integrating databases using SQLAlchemy. You’ll also implement CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) and see how to connect APIs to a database to power real applications.
Along the way, you’ll explore important concepts like dependency injection, error handling, and best practices for writing clean, maintainable, and production-ready code. By the end of the course, you’ll not only understand the fundamentals of FastAPI but also build a full-stack project that ties everything together.
No prior experience with web frameworks is required — just a basic understanding of Python. All you need is your computer, a code editor, and curiosity to learn.
By completing this course, you’ll gain the skills and confidence to design, develop, and deploy your own APIs with FastAPI, opening doors to exciting opportunities in backend and full-stack development.

I liked he tried to teach everything quickly as possible but there were somethings that we needed instructions on like during PostgresSQL installation instructions. Some of these details might be minor but I would like them to be included as well. Because for us beginners, getting confused is easy.

A clear and beginner-friendly FastAPI course. The instructor explains concepts well and the examples are easy to follow. Great for learning the basics of FastAPI, routing, and request/response handling. For more advanced or production-level topics, additional learning will be needed, but as an introduction, this course is very helpful.

It took a few sessions to get used to the instructors approach, but it was an overall good presentation with lots of good information.
By David Aliaga on 11/15/2025
Very good, concise. The only thing was that we should have put to prevent double IDs in put - throws an error because it is a primary key, but I guess that is an exercise.
