PyFilesystem2 VS starlette

Or this: https://www.pyfilesystem.org/

Pyfilesytem2 is pretty swell. Also a big fan of nox.

A better way would be to use this package: https://www.pyfilesystem.org/

Working on PyFilesystem (https://github.com/PyFilesystem/pyfilesystem2) I've written a lot of the kind of loops that the walrus operator would help with.

Fast Execution: FastAPI is built on top of Starlette and Pydantic, making it one of the fastest Python frameworks for building APIs.

The framework's efficiency comes from its use of Starlette for building asynchronous web services and Pydantic for robust data validation and serialization, powered by Python's type hints. Pydantic has recently announced the official release of Pydantic V2 (June 2023), which is a ground-up rewrite that offers many new features and performance improvements, so make sure to be using that instead of V1.

Starlette documentation

Same here, but without these weird utils it doesn't get any better.

I have 7 YoE with Django. Its great at so many things. You see some code, like middlewares, and immediately understand what's going on.

Now, we also have Starlette. The base of all new, fancy asgi libraries. Here's the base middleware class.

In the last couple of years I heard 'we're running fastapi on production. Wanna join us?' so many times... but the reality is that it's still not suitable for prod. Who wants to work with a code like that if you have a readable, stable Django? I'm clueless.

Set up Starlette, a tool we'll use to make async requests

I never used websockets in FastAPI so I wouldn't know how to guide you more, but Middleware in Websockets are 100% supported by Starlette : https://github.com/encode/starlette/issues/641

Websockets are the way but I would not recommend django as it's still not fully async. I would go for other tools.
