  @moduledoc false

  use Application

  def start(_type, _args) do
    # List all child processes to be supervised
    children = [
      {Plug.Cowboy, scheme: :http, plug: MyApp, port: 4040}
    ]

    # See https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Supervisor.html
    # for other strategies and supported options
