To use forms, first install <a href="https://github.com/Kludex/python-multipart" class="external-link" target="_blank">`python-multipart`</a>.

Make sure you create a [virtual environment](../virtual-environments.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, activate it, and then install it, for example:

```console
$ pip install python-multipart
```

///

## Import `Form`

Import `Form` from `fastapi`:

---

## Install FastAPI

The first step is to install FastAPI.

Make sure you create a [virtual environment](../virtual-environments.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, activate it, and then **install FastAPI**:

<div class="termy">

```console
$ pip install "fastapi[standard]"

---> 100%
```

</div>
