I'm switching to Python and actually liking it
I’ve started writing more Python code lately (because of… AI, you know). In this post, I share the tools, libraries, configs, and other integrations I use for building production-grade Python applications following a frontend-backend architecture.
NOTE: At the time of writing, ty is still in early development by Astral (the same company behind uv and ruff), but I’ve been using it and haven’t found any noticeable flaws so far. It helps manage all kinds of configuration settings, such as API keys, database connection details, or model parameters (hardcoding these values is a very bad practice, btw). As you can see, the Dockerfile starts from a Python base image, installs dependencies, copies the project files, and defines the command to run the FastAPI application.
