FastAPI App

This is a simple web server application using FastAPI.

FastAPI is a fast, easy to use, robust web micro-framework for building APIs with Python 3.6+. It makes documentation much easier since it can integrate your APIs with OpenAPI schemas. It doesn't require you to use a SQL (relational) or NoSQL database, yet, you can use both if needed. In general is great for microservices where you don't need all the batteries that other frameworks, like Django Rest Framework, have which allows your application to be lighter.
