In this example we use invented custom headers `X-Key` and `X-Token`.

But in real cases, when implementing security, you would get more benefits from using the integrated [Security utilities (the next chapter)](../security/index.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

**GraphQL** solves some very specific use cases.

It has **advantages** and **disadvantages** when compared to common **web APIs**.

Make sure you evaluate if the **benefits** for your use case compensate the **drawbacks**. 🤓

## GraphQL Libraries { #graphql-libraries }

Here are some of the **GraphQL** libraries that have **ASGI** support. You could use them with **FastAPI**:

It is **HIGHLY encouraged** that you write or copy the code, edit it and run it locally.

Using it in your editor is what really shows you the benefits of FastAPI, seeing how little code you have to write, all the type checks, autocompletion, etc.

## Install FastAPI { #install-fastapi }

The first step is to install FastAPI.

 * in com.google.guava:guava differs from the "frozen" copy in the listenablefuture artifact. This

 * nullness annotations in particular will outweigh the costs. (And it's worth noting that we have
 * released multiple ListenableFuture.class files that are not byte-for-byte compatible even from

It means that **FastAPI** was specifically tested with the editors used by 80% of the Python developers. And as most of the other editors tend to work similarly, all its benefits should work for virtually all editors.

That way I could find the best ways to reduce code duplication as much as possible, to have completion everywhere, type and error checks, etc.

     * fail. Use a custom [HostnameVerifier] to ignore such problems.

     * Other TLS features are still used but provide no security benefits in absence of the above
     * gaps. For example, an insecure TLS connection is capable of negotiating HTTP/2 with ALPN and
     * it also has a regular-looking handshake.
