Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Building Fast APIs with FastAPI: A Comprehensive Guide
Fast Execution: FastAPI is built on top of Starlette and Pydantic, making it one of the fastest Python frameworks for building APIs.
-
Embracing Modern Python for Web Development
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.

Writing a chat application in Django 4.2 using async StreamingHttpResponse
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.
https://github.com/encode/starlette/blob/8d7a1cacfb3e1a30cbb...
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.

FastAPI middleware doesn't run while making request to websocket endpoint
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

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

Python: A SQLAlchemy Wrapper Component That Works With Both Flask and FastAPI Frameworks
It has been an interesting exercise developing this wrapper component. The fact that it seamlessly integrates with the FastAPI framework is just a bonus for me; I didn't plan for it since I hadn't learned FastAPI at the time. I hope you find this post useful. Thank you for reading, and stay safe as always.

Building an Email Assistant Application with Burr
In this tutorial, I will demonstrate how to use Burr, an open source framework (disclosure: I helped create it), using simple OpenAI client calls to GPT4, and FastAPI to create a custom email assistant agent. We’ll describe the challenge one faces and then how you can solve for them. For the application frontend we provide a reference implementation but won’t dive into details for it.

Litestar – powerful, flexible, and highly performant Python ASGI framework
It’s been my experience that async Python frameworks tend to turn IO bound problems into CPU bound problems with a high enough request rate, because due to their nature they act as unbounded queues.
This ends up made worse if you’re using sync routes.
If you’re constrained on a resource such as a database connection pool, your framework will continue to pull http requests off the wire that a sane client will cancel and retry due to timeouts because it takes too long to get a connection out of the pool. Since there isn’t a straightforward way to cancel the execution of a route handler in every Python http framework I’ve seen exhibit this problem, the problem quickly snowballs.
This is an issue with fastapi, too- https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/issues/5759
