### Top-level application { #top-level-application }

First, create the main, top-level, **FastAPI** application, and its *path operations*:

{* ../../docs_src/sub_applications/tutorial001.py hl[3, 6:8] *}

### Sub-application { #sub-application }

Then, create your sub-application, and its *path operations*.

# Bigger Applications - Multiple Files { #bigger-applications-multiple-files }

If you are building an application or a web API, it's rarely the case that you can put everything in a single file.

**FastAPI** provides a convenience tool to structure your application while keeping all the flexibility.

/// info

If you come from Flask, this would be the equivalent of Flask's Blueprints.

///

## An example file structure { #an-example-file-structure }

### Bigger Errors - Crashes { #bigger-errors-crashes }

Nevertheless, there might be cases where we write some code that **crashes the entire application** making Uvicorn and Python crash. 💥

For some types of applications you might want to add dependencies to the whole application.

Similar to the way you can [add `dependencies` to the *path operation decorators*](dependencies-in-path-operation-decorators.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, you can add them to the `FastAPI` application.

In that case, they will be applied to all the *path operations* in the application:

		{
			name:     "1",
			metadata: map[string]string{"content-type": "application/octet-stream", "etag": "de75a98baf2c6aef435b57dd0fc33c86", "x-amz-storage-class": "STANDARD"},
			want:     map[string]string{"content-type": "application/octet-stream", "etag": "de75a98baf2c6aef435b57dd0fc33c86"},
		},
		{
			name:     "2",

     <span style="background-color:#007166"><font color="#D3D7CF"> INFO </font></span>  Waiting for application startup.
     <span style="background-color:#007166"><font color="#D3D7CF"> INFO </font></span>  Application startup complete.

### What is "Mounting" { #what-is-mounting }

"Mounting" means adding a complete "independent" application in a specific path, that then takes care of handling all the sub-paths.

This is different from using an `APIRouter` as a mounted application is completely independent. The OpenAPI and docs from your main application won't include anything from the mounted application, etc.

Including how to handle lifespan state that can be used in other areas of your code.
