FastAPI is my absolute favorite Python API because of its modern features not found in other APIs. In this video, I'll discuss 7 advantages that FastAPI has over other alternatives, like an API built with Flask, and I'll do this WHILE building out a fun little ToDo app. Code along with me! Become a community member to access Part 2 and Part 3 of this course where we connect the API to SQL and then build out a React front-end for it.
