```rs
struct Query;
#[Object]
impl Query {
fn howdy(&self) -> &'static str {
"partner"
}
}
async fn main() {
let schema = Schema::build(Query, EmptyMutation, EmptySubscription).finish();
let app = Route::new()
.at("/",
get(graphiql)
.post(GraphQL::new(schema))
);
println!("GraphiQL: http://localhost:8000");
Server::new(TcpListener::bind("0.0.0.0:8000"))
.run(app)
.await
.unwrap();
}
```
## Features
- Fully supports async/await

### Observability
One of the tools used to monitor your graphql server in production is Apollo Studio. Apollo Studio is a cloud platform that helps you build, monitor, validate, and secure your organization's data graph.
Add the extension crate [`async_graphql_apollo_studio_extension`](https://github.com/async-graphql/async_graphql_apollo_studio_extension) to make this avaliable.
