You can return a `dict`, `list`, singular values as `str`, `int`, etc.

You can also return Pydantic models (you'll see more about that later).

There are many other objects and models that will be automatically converted to JSON (including ORMs, etc). Try using your favorite ones, it's highly probable that they are already supported.

    If you don't want to have those optional dependencies, you can instead install `pip install fastapi-slim`.

## Advanced User Guide

There is also an **Advanced User Guide** that you can read later after this **Tutorial - User guide**.

The **Advanced User Guide**, builds on this, uses the same concepts, and teaches you some extra features.

The first stage will only be used to **install Poetry** and to **generate the `requirements.txt`** with your project dependencies from Poetry's `pyproject.toml` file.

This `requirements.txt` file will be used with `pip` later in the **next stage**.
