If you are using third party libraries that tell you to call them with `await`, like:

```Python
results = await some_library()
```

Then, declare your *path operation functions* with `async def` like:

```Python hl_lines="2"
@app.get('/')

// advanced techniques like specifying lock strength and optimizer hints. See the
// [docs] for more depth.
//
//	// add a simple limit clause
//	db.Clauses(clause.Limit{Limit: 1}).Find(&User{})
//	// tell the optimizer to use the `idx_user_name` index
//	db.Clauses(hints.UseIndex("idx_user_name")).Find(&User{})
//	// specify the lock strength to UPDATE
//	db.Clauses(clause.Locking{Strength: "UPDATE"}).Find(&users)
//

You can configure where your app is located in a `pyproject.toml` file like:

```toml
[tool.fastapi]
entrypoint = "main:app"
```

That `entrypoint` will tell the `fastapi` command that it should import the app like:

```python
from main import app
```

If your code was structured like:

```
.
├── backend
│   ├── main.py
│   ├── __init__.py

        remainingByteCount -= read

        // Move the received data to the read buffer to the reader can read it. If this source has
        // been closed since this read began we must discard the incoming data and tell the
        // connection we've done so.
        withLock {
          if (closed) {
            receiveBuffer.clear()
          } else {
            val wasEmpty = readBuffer.size == 0L

JDK 16 and testing on a JDK 11 runtime; to do this, set `RUNTIME_JAVA_HOME`
pointing to the Java home of a JDK 11 installation. Note that this mechanism can
be used to test against other JDKs as well, this is not only limited to JDK 11.

> Note: It is also required to have `JAVA8_HOME`, `JAVA9_HOME`, `JAVA10_HOME`
and `JAVA11_HOME`, `JAVA12_HOME`, `JAVA13_HOME`, `JAVA14_HOME`, and `JAVA15_HOME`
