A Full-Stack Project With React and FastAPI — Part 1
Learn full-stack development with this weekend project!
Weekends are good fun and a great time to learn something new through the process of experimentation. Taking this to heart, I recently worked on a small project that was one of my early forays into building a full-stack project using with both backend and frontend frameworks.
Previously, having only had thorough professional experience in backend development, I was quite excited about this project.
This was a fun little two-day experiment that turned out great and also helped me learn a ton of new stuff, and I’m hoping this series of articles will be as enjoyable and provide some learnings for you as well.
