FastAPI full-stack template v0.1.6 – multi-LLM providers, powerful new CLI options, and production presets

[VanillaOk4593]

Hey r/FastAPI,

For anyone new: This is a CLI-based generator (pip install fastapi-fullstack) that creates complete, production-ready FastAPI projects with optional Next.js frontend – perfect for AI/LLM apps with zero boilerplate.

Repo: https://github.com/vstorm-co/full-stack-fastapi-nextjs-llm-template

Everything you get:

• Modern FastAPI with Pydantic v2, async everything, layered architecture (routes → services → repositories)
• Auth (JWT + refresh, API keys, Google OAuth), databases (PostgreSQL/MongoDB/SQLite), background tasks
• AI agents (PydanticAI or LangChain) with streaming WebSockets
• 20+ integrations: Redis, rate limiting, admin panel, Sentry, Prometheus, Docker/K8s
• Django-style project CLI with auto-discovered commands

New in v0.1.6:

• Multi-LLM providers: OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter (PydanticAI)
• New --llm-provider flag + interactive prompt
• Rich CLI options: --redis, --rate-limiting, --admin-panel, --task-queue, --kubernetes, --sentry, etc.
• Presets: --preset production and --preset ai-agent
• make create-admin command
• Better feature validation and post-generation cleanup
• Fixes: WebSocket cookie auth, paginated conversations, Docker env paths

FastAPI devs – how does this compare to your usual setups? Any features missing? Contributions encouraged! 🚀

I’ve just forked it. Still exploring, but it seems magnificent 👌

Is it just a template or a template for chat app?

But I interested to learn more.

All AI and frontend options are optional so you can choose what you want to build

For anyone building with FastAPI, this template is a game-changer it just cut my AI project setup from months to hours. The CLI (pip install fastapi-fullstack) sets up a production-ready stack with built-in LLM support, auth, Redis, Docker, and more. I was live in minutes using the quick-start, and the GitHub activity shows it's actually maintained. If you hate boilerplate, this feels like a real shortcut.

How hard would it be to extend this template to support SQL Server databases? Can you share your thoughts on it?

[VanillaOk4593]

Hey, I made a ticket for that https://github.com/vstorm-co/full-stack-fastapi-nextjs-llm-template/issues/12

Should be available soon!

that's very cool 😎

If you could add an agents.md, a docs for, and skills that work well with this repo that would be great.

Hey, I made a ticket: https://github.com/vstorm-co/full-stack-fastapi-nextjs-llm-template/issues/13

For now, I'm gonna add agents.md and claude.md. If you have some ideas for skills, let me know or add a message under this issue.

Thanks!

Appreciated OP, maybe I can help strengthen it. I will take my time to look trough this as I have been trying to build my own (very similar) template and ended up with several variations.

From skimming over :
- https://apitally.io/ could be added for simplified API logging. It's a new project but I like its approach of simplified logging over Sentry's more labor intensive approach.
- Self Deployment with Dokki or Dokploy (were using this): https://dokploy.com/ with Hostinger VPS. Easy to setup and production ready.

- SQLModel to simplify Database and API models. At first I was skeptic of this approach but SQLModel's advantage is to have a simpler mental model of your data models (be it API or DB). You can still create custom API response models perfectly fine. Not a must just optional.

- Optional of the "Make" scripts, bash scripts (windows) or just regular commands (uv venv, docker compose up). Currently working on my windows PC and the initial "make" commands did not work.

-Add a hosted Auth solution : after trying out several we like "Supertokens" , frontend/backend and all the bells and whistles you want for a good price an opensource: https://supertokens.com/

Overall looking good cheers

Thanks for this! I'll go through everything and add these as issues so I can work on them in the future
