Session Goal: The primary goal of this session was to enhance the security of local development environments using Uvicorn and ensure the FastAPI backend is effectively serving YAML content for frontend interactions.

Key Activities:

  • Confirmed FastAPI backend’s capability to serve YAML content, facilitating frontend interactions with YAML data flows.
  • Discussed security best practices for local development, focusing on file access and potential vulnerabilities.
  • Verified Uvicorn server exposure, ensuring it is securely bound to localhost to prevent unauthorized external access.
  • Debugged JSON parsing errors in FastAPI, addressing issues with API route registration and frontend queries.

Achievements:

  • Successfully confirmed the secure configuration of the Uvicorn server, ensuring it is bound to localhost.
  • Improved YAML content serving capabilities in FastAPI, enhancing frontend-backend integration.
  • Resolved JSON parsing errors by reviewing and correcting API route imports and frontend requests.

Pending Tasks:

  • Further improvements in YAML loading and saving mechanisms as suggested during the session.
