/// tip

You are free to use each operation (HTTP method) as you wish.

**FastAPI** doesn't enforce any specific meaning.

The information here is presented as a guideline, not a requirement.

For example, when using GraphQL you normally perform all the actions using only `POST` operations.

## Create a Virtual Environment { #create-a-virtual-environment }

When you start working on a Python project **for the first time**, create a virtual environment **<abbr title="there are other options, this is a simple guideline">inside your project</abbr>**.

/// tip

You only need to do this **once per project**, not every time you work.

## Developing

If you already cloned the <a href="https://github.com/fastapi/fastapi" class="external-link" target="_blank">fastapi repository</a> and you want to deep dive in the code, here are some guidelines to set up your environment.

### Virtual environment

Follow the instructions to create and activate a [virtual environment](virtual-environments.md){.internal-link target=_blank} for the internal code of `fastapi`.

### When Things are Difficult

When things are great, everything is easier, so that doesn't need much instructions. But when things are difficult, here are some guidelines.

func errorResponseHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
	if r.Method == http.MethodOptions {
		return
	}
	desc := "Do not upgrade one server at a time - please follow the recommended guidelines mentioned here https://github.com/minio/minio#upgrading-minio for your environment"
	switch {
	case strings.HasPrefix(r.URL.Path, peerRESTPrefix):
		writeErrorResponseString(r.Context(), w, APIError{

    .converter("dateField", new DateConverter("yyyy-MM-dd"));

BeanUtil.copyBeanToBean(source, dest, options);
```
