Simple FastAPI application

To get started with a FastAPI application, follow these steps:

1. Install FastAPI: 

First, make sure you have Python 3.6 or higher installed. Then, install FastAPI using pip:

pip install fastapi

 

2. Create a FastAPI App: 

Create a new Python file (e.g., main.py) and import FastAPI:

from fastapi import FastAPI app = FastAPI()

 

3. Define a Route: Add a route to your app using a path operation decorator (e.g., @app.get("/")):

@app.get("/") async def root():     return {"message": "Hello World"}

 

4. Run the Development Server: Start the live server using the following command:

fastapi dev main.py
