Ep 1. Python Project Setup From Scratch with uv, FastAPI & GitHub Actions (2026 Guide)

Setting up a Python project from absolute scratch — no Python installed, no tools, nothing. We install uv, install Python through it, create a FastAPI API, test it with Postman, write automated tests with pytest, and set up GitHub Actions so tests run automatically on every push.

Everything in this video:
- Installing uv (Python package manager)
- Installing Python without python.org
- Creating a project with uv init
- Writing a FastAPI API with 3 endpoints
- Testing endpoints with Postman
- Writing automated tests with pytest
- Setting up GitHub Actions for CI
- Bonus: Dockerfile walkthrough

Commands used:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
uv python install 3.12
mkdir myname-example-repo && cd myname-example-repo
uv init
uv sync
uv run uvicorn main:app --reload
uv run pytest -v
