# FastAPI Project Templates

Production-ready FastAPI project structures with async patterns, dependency injection, middleware, and best practices for building high-performance APIs.

## When to Use This Skill

- Starting new FastAPI projects from scratch
- Implementing async REST APIs with Python
- Building high-performance web services and microservices
- Creating async applications with PostgreSQL, MongoDB
- Setting up API projects with proper structure and testing

## Core Concepts

### 1. Project Structure

**Recommended Layout:**

```
app/
├── api/                    # API routes
│   ├── v1/
│   │   ├── endpoints/
│   │   │   ├── users.py
│   │   │   ├── auth.py
│   │   │   └── items.py
│   │   └── router.py
│   └── dependencies.py     # Shared dependencies
├── core/                   # Core configuration
│   ├── config.py
│   ├── security.py
│   └── database.py
├── models/                 # Database models
│   ├── user.py
│   └── item.py
├── schemas/                # Pydantic schemas
│   ├── user.py
│   └── item.py
├── services/               # Business logic
│   ├── user_service.py
│   └── auth_service.py
├── repositories/           # Data access
│   ├── user_repository.py
│   └── item_repository.py
└── main.py                 # Application entry
```

### 2. Dependency Injection

FastAPI's built-in DI system using `Depends`:

- Database session management
- Authentication/authorization
- Shared business logic
- Configuration injection

### 3. Async Patterns

Proper async/await usage:

- Async route handlers
- Async database operations
- Async background tasks
- Async middleware

### 4. Dependencies

The packages the examples import:
