Goodbye, "Hello, World." Hello, Functional FastAPI Web App!
summary
Builds a usable FastAPI app from a sketch to a working service: explicit config via an .env and pedantic settings factory, async DB connection with beanie over motor to FastAPI (local or Atlas MongoDB), clear app structure (core/config, db, models, crud, routes), simple CRUD for favorite songs that actually saves and queries documents, automatic OpenAPI docs, and a run tested with uvicorn so the example demonstrably works.
