    * But it provides you the tools to build simple web applications, with routing based on paths, etc.
    * If you are comparing Starlette, compare it against Sanic, Flask, Django, etc. Web frameworks (or microframeworks).
* **FastAPI**:
    * The same way that Starlette uses Uvicorn and cannot be faster than it, **FastAPI** uses Starlette, so it cannot be faster than it.

Use Python types to have great editor support.

Have a powerful dependency injection system. Find a way to minimize code repetition.

It was one of the first extremely fast Python frameworks based on `asyncio`. It was made to be very similar to Flask.
