Building AI APIs with Python FastAPI
Description
Learn how to build a REST API that talks to an AI model — the same core pattern behind almost every AI app out there (chatbots, coding assistants, content tools). You'll build a working FastAPI endpoint that takes user input, calls an LLM, and returns a real response — tested live using FastAPI's interactive docs page. By the end, you'll understand how AI apps are wired together under the hood, and have a reusable pattern you can extend with your own ideas (memory, tool use, auth, and more).
Prerequisites
- Basic Python knowledge (functions, variables, running a script) - A computer with Python installed - A code editor (VS Code recommended) - Optional but recommended: install FastAPI + uvicorn beforehand so you can follow along live
