starlette VS starlite

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.

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.

For the past one and a half years 😁. Checkout our docs https://starliteproject.dev/

#1286 is the issue tracking the removal of our last internal Pydantic datastructure, and PR #1382 has the addition of attrs based signature modelling. Once those are merged you will be able to use Starlite without Pydantic.

You can go to Open an Issue and open an issue for a feature request/enhancement and describe basically the behavior you are wanting to see.

Falcon FastAPI Sanic Starlite (disclosure: I do work here)

for server side , starliteproject.dev/, only python async framwork worth looking into.

Well, I'm not objective but I'd say Starlite (https://github.com/starlite-api/starlite) is a might fine codebase. You can also learn a lot about tooling and typing going through it.

I have mentioned your concerns to the Starlite discussions board - https://github.com/starlite-api/starlite/discussions/1183

You can find the complete changelog on our v1.51.0 GitHub release page.
