I'm learning Fast Api and I kept using these __init__.py but I never knew why they were used. Thanks Tim. It was such a great tutorial.

The internet gives me access to so much information, it's like having a genius classmate whose brain I can pick for free. Thanks, Tim, you're a lifesaver!

I was still using the init file this whole time.😂.... I learned something today. Thank you Tim

I’m excited to see more beginner friendly videos like these for fast api, Django, etc. Great content, Tim!

Thank you, great video. Working with packages is such an important and yet slightly overlooked topic!

Videos like this are super handy. Can you make a video series on topics like this, please!?
