This repository contains a web API built using FastAPI, a modern, fast (high-performance) web framework for building APIs with Python 3.7+ based on standard Python type hints.

• High performance: FastAPI is one of the fastest Python frameworks available.
• Interactive API documentation: Automatic generation of interactive API documentation using Swagger UI and ReDoc.
• Dependency Injection: Easily manage dependencies.
• Data validation: Utilizes Pydantic for robust data validation.

• Python 3.7+
• FastAPI
• Uvicorn (ASGI server for running FastAPI)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Ideas2IT/fastapi-foundation.git
   cd fastapi-foundation

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv env
   source env/bin/activate  # On Windows use `env\Scripts\activate`

3. Install the dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
