FastAPI sabrá que `q` es opcional por el `= None`.

El `Union` en `Union[str, None]` no es usado por FastAPI (FastAPI solo usará la parte `str`), pero el `Union[str, None]` le permitirá a tu editor ayudarte a encontrar errores en tu código.

`Optional[Something]` ist tatsächlich eine Abkürzung für `Union[Something, None]`, diese beiden sind äquivalent.

Das bedeutet auch, dass Sie in Python 3.10 `Something | None` verwenden können:
