fastapi-fullstack

Set up a full-stack Python web application by cloning the FastAPI-React template, then run docker compose up -d to launch the containerized backend, frontend, and PostgreSQL database together. Manual setup requires installing backend dependencies from requirements.txt and starting the FastAPI server with uvicorn main:app --reload.

Yes, FastAPI integrates seamlessly with React frontends and PostgreSQL databases in Docker. This full-stack scaffold provides Docker Compose configuration to run all three services together, plus SQLAlchemy ORM for database operations, enabling production-ready containerized deployments.

Clone the full-stack template repository at depth 1, then either run docker compose up -d for immediate deployment or manually install dependencies and start uvicorn. The scaffold includes FastAPI backend, React frontend, PostgreSQL integration via SQLAlchemy, and Docker tooling to eliminate setup boilerplate.

Docker is not required but recommended for consistency. The template supports both Docker Compose deployment for production-like environments and manual setup by installing requirements.txt dependencies and running uvicorn directly, giving teams flexibility in their deployment approach.

Use SQLAlchemy ORM within the FastAPI backend to query and manage PostgreSQL data. This template preconfigures SQLAlchemy integration so you define models and endpoints without manual database connection setup, accelerating full-stack development.

A full-stack template provides a cloneable scaffold with FastAPI backend, React frontend, PostgreSQL database schema, SQLAlchemy ORM integration, and Docker Compose configuration. Teams use it to skip boilerplate and start building features immediately on Python 3.11+.
