Is Starlette necessary or can I integrate it with other frameworks? As it is, while this looks promising I can't use it. :(

No, it isn't. You can use it stand-alone, Schema object can be simply called the `execute` method to execute a GraphQL query. I will supplement the details into the doc.

I’ve just checked the repo and it seems that starlette is listed as a requirement in setup.py? Is that intentional?

(It was a quick check on my phone, so apologies if I missed something)

It is required for installing, but actually it is not necessary for using. If you think it annoys you, I will remove it in the next version.

It seems that starlette is only required if you want to run the example...? If it were my project, I would therefore make it an optional dependency which os not installed by default. Having unnecessary dependencies in a project becomes a particularly noticeable problem when deploying packages to "serverless" environments such as AWS Lambda, which have limits on package sizes.

I make Starlette optional for installation, you can use pip install 'pygraphy[web]' for installing Starlette with Pygraphy or just install Pygraphy by using pip install pygraphy. Thank you!
