+---
+
+# Create New Programming Assignment
+
+Your goal is to generate a new homework assignment for the Mergington High School students.
+
+## Step 1: Gather Assignment Information
+
+If not already provided by the user, ask what the assignment will be about.
+
+## Step 2: Create Assignment Structure
+
+1. Create a new directory in the `assignments` folder with a unique name based on the assignment topic
+1. Create a new file in the directory named `README.md` with the structure from the [assignment-template.md](../../templates/assignment-template.md) file
+1. Fill out the assignment details in the README file
+1. (Optional) Add starter code or attachments if the assignment needs them - add these files to the same assignment folder
+
+## Step 3: Update Website Configuration
+
+Update the assignments list in [config.json](../../config.json) website configuration file to include the new assignment. For the dueDate field, use the current date plus 7 days unless specified otherwise.

+# 🚀 Assignment: Building REST APIs with FastAPI
+
+## 🎯 Objective
+
+Learn how to build and test RESTful APIs using the FastAPI framework in Python. You will create endpoints, handle requests and responses, and understand basic API concepts.
+
+## 📝 Tasks
+
+### 🛠️ Create a Simple FastAPI Application
+
+#### Description
+Set up a FastAPI project and create a basic API with at least two endpoints.
+
+#### Requirements
+Completed program should:
+- Use FastAPI to create a web server
+- Implement a root endpoint (`/`) that returns a welcome message
+- Implement a `/items/{item_id}` endpoint that returns details for a given item
+
+### 🛠️ Add Data and Error Handling
+
+#### Description
+Enhance your API to handle data and errors gracefully.
+
+#### Requirements
+Completed program should:
+- Use a Python dictionary or list to store item data
+- Return a 404 error if an item is not found
+- Validate input types and handle invalid requests
+
+### 🛠️ (Optional) Add a POST Endpoint
+
+#### Description
+Allow users to add new items to your API using a POST request.
+
+#### Requirements
+Completed program should:
+- Accept JSON data in the request body
+- Add the new item to your data store
+- Return a success message and the added item
