A backend REST API developed to support product, inventory and sales operations for a retail management system.

The application was built with FastAPI, providing structured endpoints for managing business data while maintaining clear separation between API routes, validation, persistence and application logic.

Request and response validation ensures consistent data exchange, while database integration provides persistent storage for the application's resources.

The API follows REST principles and provides automatic OpenAPI documentation, making endpoints easy to explore, test and integrate with external applications.

The project was also containerized with Docker, providing a reproducible development and deployment environment and demonstrating a lightweight Python API architecture.
