   - CORS middleware
   - Database session dependency
   - Health check endpoint (/health)
   - API versioning prefix (/api/v1)
2. Create Pydantic schemas for all entities
3. Implement basic CRUD endpoints:
   - GET /api/v1/creators
   - GET /api/v1/creators/{slug}
   - GET /api/v1/videos
   - GET /api/v1/health
4. Add structured logging
5. Configure environment variable loading from .env

## Inputs

- `backend/models.py`
- `backend/database.py`

## Expected Output

- `backend/main.py`
- `backend/schemas.py`
- `backend/routers/creators.py`
- `backend/config.py`
