When building a FastAPI project with PostgreSQL, you need a reliable way to manage your database schema over time. As your application evolves, simple table creation is not enough. You need a way to safely apply, track, and roll back changes.
Alembic provides a structured, version-controlled approach to database migrations. In this guide, weโll walk through how to set up Alembic with FastAPI, SQLModel, and PostgreSQL, including common issues youโll run into when working with Docker.
Choosing an API framework depends on both your application’s needs and your development team’s strengths. In this article, we explore Express vs FastAPI by building the same API in both frameworks and examining differences in tooling, ecosystem support, and runtime behavior.
Asciinema fills a unique niche in the toolkit for terminal recording and sharing. It bridges the gap between plain text output and video, offering the best of both worlds: the clarity and timing of a recording with the selectability and accessibility of text. Whether you’re creating tutorials, documenting bugs, or sharing command-line workflows, asciinema deserves a spot in your toolkit.
Building an app and a website is a significant commitment. Database design, stack selection, and architecture decisions have long-lasting consequences, and supporting both web and mobile interfaces adds another layer of complexity. Even with many years of experience building enterprise systems, wearing every hat (from engineering to operations) was challenging…
The traditional SDLC wasnโt designed for AI-accelerated delivery. When features ship in hours instead of weeks, detailed upfront documentation becomes the bottleneck in an AI-assisted software development lifecycle. As organizations accelerate delivery with AI, most software documentation strategies havenโt kept pace. Practices built for slower, predictable releases struggle with rapid iteration. Modern software delivery teams need a lighter approach that …
