And then you can return any object you need, as you normally would (a `dict`, a database model, etc).

And if you declared a `response_model`, it will still be used to filter and convert the object you returned.

"Mounting" means adding a completely "independent" application in a specific path, that then takes care of handling everything under that path, with the _path operations_ declared in that sub-application.

### Top-level application { #top-level-application }

First, create the main, top-level, **FastAPI** application, and its *path operations*:

        }

        // Get the directory containing this POM
        Path parentDir = pomPath.getParent();
        if (parentDir == null) {
            return false;
        }

        // Get declared subprojects
        Set<String> declaredSubprojects = subprojectElements.stream()
                .map(Element::textContentTrimmed)
                .filter(name -> !name.isEmpty())
