Summary#

Experience designing, building, and consuming REST APIs across multiple frameworks (Flask, FastAPI) with proper authentication, error handling, and documentation.

How I Apply This Skill#

• Built Flask REST APIs handling 1,000 requests per minute
• Developed FastAPI backends with async endpoints and automatic OpenAPI documentation
• Integrated with external APIs: Anthropic, OpenAI for AI features
• Designed endpoint schemas with Pydantic models for validation
• Implemented proper HTTP status codes, error responses, and pagination
• Created OpenAPI/Swagger specifications for team collaboration

Key Strengths#

• API Design: RESTful principles, resource naming, versioning
• Frameworks: Flask (traditional), FastAPI (async)
• Documentation: OpenAPI/Swagger, automatic schema generation
• Integration: Third-party APIs, authentication, rate limiting
