In this chapter, we are going to implement an application based on the Falcon framework. This application will be related to quotes; you will be able to fetch a quote of the day and generate a random quote. I hope it will be interesting to you. We are going to include a scheduler, which will be responsible for fetching a random quote from a third party API and putting it into our database. We will set this scheduler to be executed once a day. Let's get ready for the ride.
Topics we will cover in this chapter include the following:
- Installing and configuring Falcon
- Designing Falcon APIs
- Building, testing, and deploying the Falcon APIs using Zappa
