Combined Fullstack Structure (FastAPI + React)

One single project structure containing Backend + Frontend together (monorepo style).

All files contain only comments describing what each file should do. No real application code is written — you implement later.

Stack

• Backend: FastAPI (Python) + Uvicorn
• Frontend: React (Vite recommended)
• Database: PostgreSQL / SQLite / MongoDB
• Container: Docker + Docker Compose

How to use

1. Unzip
2. Implement logic following the comments inside each file
3. Backend:

   cd backend
   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate   # Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   cp .env.example .env
   uvicorn app.main:app --reload

4. Frontend:

   cd frontend
   npm install
   npm run dev

5. Or run everything with Docker:

   docker-compose up --build

Notes

• Backend runs on port 8000 (docs: http://localhost:8000/docs)
• Frontend usually on port 3000 or 5173
• Keep secrets in .env files (never commit them)
• Every file has clear comments explaining its task
