## What it is
A cookiecutter template that bootstraps full-stack web applications using FastAPI (Python) and React (TypeScript). It bundles PostgreSQL with SQLAlchemy/Alembic, JWT OAuth2 authentication, Celery background tasks with Redis, Docker Compose, Nginx reverse proxy, and a react-admin dashboard.

## Use cases
- start a new full-stack FastAPI and React project
- scaffold a web app with JWT authentication already wired up
- bootstrap a project with PostgreSQL, SQLAlchemy, and Alembic migrations
- set up Docker Compose development environment for API and frontend
- add background task processing with Celery and Redis
- get an admin dashboard with react-admin and token auth
- avoid configuring Nginx, ESLint, Prettier, and pytest from scratch

## When to choose
- you want a batteries-included FastAPI + React starter with auth, database, and background jobs
- you prefer Docker Compose-based local development with Nginx proxying
- you need a react-admin dashboard backed by a JWT-authenticated FastAPI API
- you want testing conventions like transaction-rollback pytest fixtures out of the box

## When to avoid
- you need a different frontend framework like Vue or Svelte
- you want a NoSQL database such as MongoDB instead of PostgreSQL
- you need the latest React or FastAPI versions, since the template's last release was 2023 and may lag behind
- you prefer building your own minimal stack rather than a large opinionated template
- you need serverless or edge deployment rather than Docker/Nginx hosting
