# Editor Support { #editor-support } The official [FastAPI Extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=FastAPILabs.fastapi-vscode) enhances your FastAPI development workflow with *path operation* discovery, navigation, as well as FastAPI Cloud deployment, and live log streaming. For more details about the extension, refer to the README on the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/fastapi/fastapi-vscode). ## Setup and Installation { #setup-and-installation } The **FastAPI Extension** is available for both [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) and [Cursor](https://www.cursor.com/). It can be installed directly from the Extensions panel in each editor by searching for "FastAPI" and selecting the extension published by **FastAPI Labs**. The extension also works in browser-based editors such as [vscode.dev](https://vscode.dev) and [github.dev](https://github.dev). ### Application Discovery { #application-discovery } By default, the extension will automatically discover FastAPI applications in your workspace by scanning for files that instantiate `FastAPI()`. If auto-detection doesn't work for your project structure, you can specify an entrypoint via `[tool.fastapi]` in `pyproject.toml` or the `fastapi.entryPoint` VS Code setting using module notation (e.g. `myapp.main:app`). ## Features { #features } - **Path Operation Explorer** - A sidebar tree view of all *path operations* in your application. Click to jump to any route or router definition. - **Route Search** - Search by path, method, or name with Ctrl + Shift + E (on macOS: Cmd + Shift + E). - **CodeLens Navigation** - Clickable links above test client calls (e.g. `client.get('/items')`) that jump to the matching *path operation* for quick navigation between tests and implementation. - **Deploy to FastAPI Cloud** - One-click deployment of your app to [FastAPI Cloud](https://fastapicloud.com/). - **Stream Application Logs** - Real-time log streaming from your FastAPI Cloud-deployed application with level filtering and text search. If you'd like to familiarize yourself with the extension's features, you can checkout the extension walkthrough by opening the Command Palette (Ctrl + Shift + P or on macOS: Cmd + Shift + P) and selecting "Welcome: Open walkthrough..." and then choosing the "Get started with FastAPI" walkthrough.
