<a href="https://x.com/compose/tweet?text=I'm loving @fastapi because... https://github.com/fastapi/fastapi" class="external-link" target="_blank">Tweet about **FastAPI**</a> and let me and others know why you like it. 🎉

I love to hear about how **FastAPI** is being used, what you have liked in it, in which project/company are you using it, etc.

When using a proxy to handle HTTPS, your **application server** (for example Uvicorn via FastAPI CLI) doesn't known anything about the HTTPS process, it communicates with plain HTTP with the **TLS Termination Proxy**.

This **proxy** would normally set some HTTP headers on the fly before transmitting the request to the **application server**, to let the application server know that the request is being **forwarded** by the proxy.

/// note | Technical Details

 *
 * from igor: two plugins A and B, both depend on the same library but use different versions, say
 * lib 1.0 and lib 2.0 when debugger hits a breakpoint inside a class from the library, IDE needs to
 * know which version of library the class comes from

// ParseUnverifiedStandardClaims - WARNING: Don't use this method unless you know what you're doing
//
// This method parses the token but doesn't validate the signature. It's only
// ever useful in cases where you know the signature is valid (because it has
// been checked previously in the stack) and you want to extract values from
// it.

The query parameter `q` is of type `str | None`, that means that it's of type `str` but could also be `None`, and indeed, the default value is `None`, so FastAPI will know it's not required.

/// note

FastAPI will know that the value of `q` is not required because of the default value `= None`.

Having `str | None` will allow your editor to give you better support and detect errors.

So you wait for your crush to finish the story (finish the current work ⏯ / task being processed 🤓), smile gently and say that you are going for the burgers ⏸.

Check this function, it already has type hints:

{* ../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial003_py39.py hl[1] *}

Because the editor knows the types of the variables, you don't only get completion, you also get error checks:

Now you know that you have to fix it, convert `age` to a string with `str(age)`:

{* ../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial004_py39.py hl[2] *}

The **server** program (for example **Uvicorn** via **FastAPI CLI**) is capable of interpreting these headers, and then passing that information to your application.

				locksFailed++
				if locksFailed > tolerance {
					// We know that we are not going to get the lock anymore,
					// so exit out and release any locks that did get acquired
					done = true
				}
			}
		case <-ctx.Done():
			// Capture timedout locks as failed or took too long
			locksFailed++
			if locksFailed > tolerance {
				// We know that we are not going to get the lock anymore,

* and from it, import the function `get_token_header`.

That would refer to some package above `app/`, with its own file `__init__.py`, etc. But we don't have that. So, that would throw an error in our example. 🚨

But now you know how it works, so you can use relative imports in your own apps no matter how complex they are. 🤓
