Project mention: More elegant/functional way to write this endpoint | reddit.com/r/FastAPI | 2022-11-30
I don't think this is too bad, I assume type is a type of image in list of the same index. Maybe check out issues/2387 for insipration in how to maybe simplify the endpoint definition.
-

I'm not 100% sure how you're planning to build your project, but maybe tools like https://strapi.io/ could be interesting?

Maybe, some of you already heard about React Query or SWR. I believe those state management package have the same concept with the RTK Query. However, a winning point about RTK query is all in one with Redux. If you are using Redux, so it's a free optional feature without installing a new package.
