FastAPI coding workshop

It's time again to do some coding together.

This time we take a look at FastAPI, a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework for building APIs with Python based on standard Python type hints.

We are going to implement a simple web application that provides a REST API with validation. The ability to do so is a skill valuable in many situations, be a pet project to scratch one's own itch, or an in-house service for your company to automate something boring.

A single laptop is shared between all attendants, and we will switch the keyboard so everyone can get to code parts of it. If someone gets stuck, we help each other out. The goal is to learn something new and have fun while doing it.
