This skill guides the creation of a production-ready FastAPI project with all necessary components.

from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv('.env')

from app.settings.development import DevelopmentSettings

@lru_cache()
def get_settings():
    env = os.getenv('ENV', None)
    env_config: Dict = {

    }
    if env is None or env not in env_config:

Response Wrapper

Use unified response format:

Implementation Workflow

When user requests a FastAPI project:

1. Gather Requirements: Project name, database, auth requirements
2. Generate Structure: Create directory structure
3. Create Config: Settings with multi-environment support
4. Setup Response: Response wrappers and error codes
5. Setup Auth: JWT with pwdlib password hashing
6. Add Database: SQLAlchemy with sync/async support
7. Add Cache: Redis integration
8. Add Tasks: Celery configuration
9. Add Docker: Containerization files
10. Write README: Documentation

Generate production-grade code with proper error handling, logging, and unified response format.
