This includes, for example:

* Email notifications sent after performing an action:
    * As connecting to an email server and sending an email tends to be "slow" (several seconds), you can return the response right away and send the email notification in the background.
* Processing data:

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

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

## An example file structure

Let's say you have a file structure like this:

```
.
├── app
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── main.py
│   ├── dependencies.py
│   └── routers
│   │   ├── __init__.py

                                        "title": "Item",
                                    }
                                ),
                                "examples": {
                                    "normal": {
                                        "summary": "A normal example",
                                        "description": "A **normal** item works correctly.",
                                        "value": {

    open fun encode(codePoint: Int): String {
      throw UnsupportedOperationException()
    }
  }

  enum class Component {
    USER {
      override fun urlString(value: String): String = "http://$value@example.com/"

      override fun encodedValue(url: HttpUrl): String = url.encodedUsername

      override operator fun set(
        builder: HttpUrl.Builder,

## Example

Here's an example *path operation* with parameters using some of the above types.

    String response = example.run("https://raw.github.com/square/okhttp/master/README.md");
    System.out.println(response);
  }

    ## Usage

    Create an instance object and use that object as the dependency in `Depends()`.

    The dependency result will be a string containing the key value.

    ## Example

    ```python
    from fastapi import Depends, FastAPI
    from fastapi.security import APIKeyQuery

    app = FastAPI()

    query_scheme = APIKeyQuery(name="api_key")


    @app.get("/items/")

fake_users_db = {
    "johndoe": {
        "username": "johndoe",
        "full_name": "John Doe",
        "email": "johndoe@example.com",
        "hashed_password": "fakehashedsecret",
        "disabled": False,
    },
    "alice": {
        "username": "alice",
        "full_name": "Alice Wonderson",
        "email": "alice@example.com",
        "hashed_password": "fakehashedsecret2",
        "disabled": True,
    },
}

app = FastAPI()

@app.put("/items/{item_id}")
async def update_item(
    *,
    item_id: int,
    item: Item = Body(
        openapi_examples={
            "normal": {
                "summary": "A normal example",
                "description": "A **normal** item works correctly.",
                "value": {
                    "name": "Foo",
                    "description": "A very nice Item",
                    "price": 35.4,
