It would actually be common to use Requests *inside* of a FastAPI application.

But still, FastAPI got quite some inspiration from Requests.

**Requests** is a library to *interact* with APIs (as a client), while **FastAPI** is a library to *build* APIs (as a server).

They are, more or less, at opposite ends, complementing each other.

If you needed to, you could use settings and environment variables to configure OpenAPI conditionally depending on the environment, and even disable it entirely.

## About security, APIs, and docs { #about-security-apis-and-docs }

Hiding your documentation user interfaces in production *shouldn't* be the way to protect your API.

The hierarchy is like:

* **Uvicorn**: an ASGI server
    * **Starlette**: (uses Uvicorn) a web microframework
        * **FastAPI**: (uses Starlette) an API microframework with several additional features for building APIs, with data validation, etc.

* **Uvicorn**:
    * Will have the best performance, as it doesn't have much extra code apart from the server itself.

"_Chúng tôi đã chuyển qua **FastAPI cho **APIs** của chúng tôi [...] Tôi nghĩ bạn sẽ thích nó [...]_"

FastAPI also includes these JavaScript-only `presets` settings:

```JavaScript
presets: [
    SwaggerUIBundle.presets.apis,
    SwaggerUIBundle.SwaggerUIStandalonePreset
]
```

These are **JavaScript** objects, not strings, so you can't pass them from Python code directly.

You can combine normal FastAPI *path operations* with GraphQL on the same application.

/// tip

**GraphQL** solves some very specific use cases.

It has **advantages** and **disadvantages** when compared to common **web APIs**.

Make sure you evaluate if the **benefits** for your use case compensate the **drawbacks**. 🤓
