A curated list of awesome things related to FastAPI
A community-maintained index of FastAPI extensions, tutorials, boilerplate projects, and hosting options. Useful as a starting point when you're assembling a FastAPI stack and want to know what options exist for auth, ORMs, admin panels, etc. Not a tutorial or framework itself — just a list.
Well-categorized: auth, ORMs, ODMs, admin, DI, and observability each have their own section so you can scan quickly. Covers the full deployment surface — PaaS, IaaS, serverless, Docker images — not just library recommendations. Actively maintained with a CI workflow for expired links, which cuts down on the dead-link problem most awesome-lists suffer. The boilerplate section is genuinely useful, especially the official full-stack template from Tiangolo himself.
No quality signal on individual entries — a one-star hobby project sits next to a production-grade library with no indication of maintenance status, activity, or adoption. Several listed packages haven't had meaningful commits in 2–3 years (fastapi-jwt-auth, fastapi-auth, ORM by encode) and adopting them would be a mistake. The tutorials and articles section skews heavily toward 2020–2021 content; FastAPI's async patterns and Pydantic v2 migration have changed enough that some of it is actively misleading. No mention of FastStream or async task queue patterns beyond Celery, which is an omission for anyone building event-driven services today.
