Flask is a "microframework", it doesn't include database integrations nor many of the things that come by default in Django.

This simplicity and flexibility allow doing things like using NoSQL databases as the main data storage system.

As it is very simple, it's relatively intuitive to learn, although the documentation gets somewhat technical at some points.

    Never store the plain password of a user or send it in a response like this, unless you know all the caveats and you know what you are doing.

## Add an output model

We can instead create an input model with the plaintext password and an output model without it:

    ```Python hl_lines="9  11  16"

* TCP não conhece nada sobre "domínios". Somente sobre endereços IP.
    * A informação sobre o domínio requisitado vai nos dados HTTP.
* Os certificados HTTPS "certificam" um certo domínio, mas o protocolo e a encriptação acontecem no nível TCP, antes de saber qual domínio está sendo lidado.
* Por padrão, isso significa que você pode ter somente um certificado HTTPS por endereço IP.

* **Define requirements**: from request path parameters, query parameters, headers, bodies, dependencies, etc.
* **Convert data**: from the request to the required type.
* **Validate data**: coming from each request:
    * Generating **automatic errors** returned to the client when the data is invalid.
* **Document** the API using OpenAPI:
    * which is then used by the automatic interactive documentation user interfaces.

    And be compatible with all of them at the same time.

Create a utility function to hash a password coming from the user.

And another utility to verify if a received password matches the hash stored.

And another one to authenticate and return a user.

* A bash script that runs the previous steps and then starts your application
    * You would still need a way to start/restart *that* bash script, detect errors, etc.

    I'll give you more concrete examples for doing this with containers in a future chapter: [FastAPI in Containers - Docker](docker.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

## Resource Utilization

And then, that system (in this case **FastAPI**) will take care of doing whatever is needed to provide your code with those needed dependencies ("inject" the dependencies).

This is very useful when you need to:

* Have shared logic (the same code logic again and again).

But as you go away from the counter and sit at the table with a number for your turn, you can switch 🔀 your attention to your crush, and "work" ⏯ 🤓 on that. Then you are again doing something very "productive" as is flirting with your crush 😍.

There you can select "Releases only".

By doing it, you will receive notifications (in your email) whenever there's a new release (a new version) of **FastAPI** with bug fixes and new features.

3. This `yield from` tells the function to iterate over that thing named `file_like`. And then, for each part iterated, yield that part as coming from this generator function.

    So, it is a generator function that transfers the "generating" work to something else internally.

    By doing it this way, we can put it in a `with` block, and that way, ensure that it is closed after finishing.
