## Be Nice

First of all, be nice. 😊

You probably are super nice if you were added to the team, but it's worth mentioning it. 🤓

### 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.

import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import org.jspecify.annotations.NullMarked;
import org.jspecify.annotations.Nullable;

/**
 * To be implemented by test generators of things that can contain elements. Such things include
 * both {@link Collection} and {@link Map}; since there isn't an established collective noun that
 * encompasses both of these, 'container' is used.

* A particular program while it is **running** on the operating system.
    * This doesn't refer to the file, nor to the code, it refers **specifically** to the thing that is being **executed** and managed by the operating system.

## What is "Dependency Injection" { #what-is-dependency-injection }

**"Dependency Injection"** means, in programming, that there is a way for your code (in this case, your *path operation functions*) to declare things that it requires to work and use: "dependencies".

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).

If you want to secure your API, there are several better things you can do, for example:

* Make sure you have well defined Pydantic models for your request bodies and responses.
* Configure any required permissions and roles using dependencies.

Just keep in mind that when you read "server" in general, it could refer to one of those two things.

When referring to the remote machine, it's common to call it **server**, but also **machine**, **VM** (virtual machine), **node**. Those all refer to some type of remote machine, normally running Linux, where you run programs.

Activating a virtual environment also changes a couple of other things, but this is one of the most important things it does.

When you check if a virtual environment is active, for example with:
