Today, we leave local testing behind and Dockerize our FastAPI application.
We are swapping our basic SQLite setup for a production-ready PostgreSQL database using Docker Compose.
You will learn how to write a highly optimized, multi-stage Dockerfile using the uv package manager, ensuring your containers are lightweight and lightning-fast.
We also cover environment variables and secure networking between your API and database containers.
By the end of this tutorial, your User Service will be fully containerized. Let's build!
