## Get Started
The below file is a standard `.graphQL` file, with a few additions such as `@server` and `@http` directives. So, basically, we specify the GraphQL schema and how to resolve that GraphQL schema in the same file, without having to write any code!
```graphql
schema @server(port: 8000, hostname: "0.0.0.0") @upstream(httpCache: 42) {
query: Query
}
type Query {
posts: [Post] @http(url: "http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts")
user(id: Int!): User @http(url: "http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/{{.args.id}}")
}
type User {
id: Int!
name: String!
username: String!
email: String!
phone: String
website: String
}
type Post {
id: Int!
userId: Int!
title: String!
body: String!
user: User @http(url: "http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/{{.value.userId}}")
}
```
Now, run the following command to start the server with the full path to the jsonplaceholder.graphql file that you created above.
```bash
tailcall start ./jsonplaceholder.graphql
```
