FastAPI frontends and static files served from the CDN
UpdateVerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026
FastAPI frontends and static files, served with app.frontend() or StaticFiles , are now promoted to the Vercel CDN at build time. Requests for those paths are served directly from the CDN, without invoking your Vercel Function. FastAPI evaluates routes in declaration order.
