Static Files
You can serve static files automatically from a directory using StaticFiles.
Install aiofiles
First you need to install aiofiles:

---> 100%
Use StaticFiles
- Import
StaticFiles. - "Mount" a
StaticFiles()instance in a specific path.
{!../../../docs_src/static_files/tutorial001.py!}
!!! note "Technical Details"
You could also use from starlette.staticfiles import StaticFiles.
**FastAPI** provides the same `starlette.staticfiles` as `fastapi.staticfiles` just as a convenience for you, the developer. But it actually comes directly from Starlette.
What is "Mounting"
"Mounting" means adding a complete "independent" application in a specific path, that then takes care of handling all the sub-paths.
This is different from using an APIRouter as a mounted application is completely independent. The OpenAPI and docs from your main application won't include anything from the mounted application, etc.
You can read more about this in the Advanced User Guide.
Details
The first "/static" refers to the sub-path this "sub-application" will be "mounted" on. So, any path that starts with "/static" will be handled by it.
The directory="static" refers to the name of the directory that contains your static files.
The name="static" gives it a name that can be used internally by FastAPI.
All these parameters can be different than "static", adjust them with the needs and specific details of your own application.
More info
For more details and options check Starlette's docs about Static Files.
