How can I Install FastAPI

Installation

Run the command below to install FastAPI. You can also create a virtual environment and then install the package.

pip install fastapi

You will also need an ASGI server for production such as uvicorn. An ASGI (Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface) is a spiritual successor to WSGI, intended to provide a standard interface between async-capable Python web servers, frameworks, and applications.

pip install uvicorn

Now we are ready to run our first FastAPI code.
