## Testing locally with Traefik

You can easily run the experiment locally with a stripped path prefix using <a href="https://docs.traefik.io/" class="external-link" target="_blank">Traefik</a>.

<a href="https://github.com/containous/traefik/releases" class="external-link" target="_blank">Download Traefik</a>, it's a single binary, you can extract the compressed file and run it directly from the terminal.

## Install the Server Program

When you install FastAPI, it comes with a production server, Uvicorn, and you can start it with the `fastapi run` command.

But you can also install an ASGI server manually:

=== "Uvicorn"

### Step 5: return the content

```Python hl_lines="8"
{!../../../docs_src/first_steps/tutorial001.py!}
```

You can return a `dict`, `list`, singular values as `str`, `int`, etc.

You can also return Pydantic models (you'll see more about that later).

                be `None`.

                This is useful when you want to have optional authentication.

                It is also useful when you want to have authentication that can be
                provided in one of multiple optional ways (for example, in HTTP Basic
                authentication or in an HTTP Bearer token).
                """
            ),
        ] = True,
    ):

* Any program, any code, **can only do things** when it is being **executed**. So, when there's a **process running**.
* The process can be **terminated** (or "killed") by you, or by the operating system. At that point, it stops running/being executed, and it can **no longer do things**.

participant dep as Dep with yield
participant operation as Path Operation
participant tasks as Background tasks

    Note over client,tasks: Can raise exception for dependency, handled after response is sent
    Note over client,operation: Can raise HTTPException and can change the response
    client ->> dep: Start request
    Note over dep: Run code up to yield
    opt raise
        dep -->> handler: Raise HTTPException

## Await for messages and send messages

In your WebSocket route you can `await` for messages and send messages.

```Python hl_lines="48-52"
{!../../../docs_src/websockets/tutorial001.py!}
```

You can receive and send binary, text, and JSON data.

## Try it

If your file is named `main.py`, run your application with:

<div class="termy">
