## Schema
Right, we'd better write some types then. Open `quickstart/schema.py` and get typing.
GraphQL presents your objects to the world as a graph structure rather than a more
heiricarcal structure to which you may be acustomed. In order to create this
representation, Graphene needs to know about each *type* of object which will appear in
the graph. Below we define these as the `UserType` and `GroupType` classes.
This graph also has a 'root' through which all access begins. This is the `Query` class below.
In this example, we provide the ability to list all users via `all_users`, and the
ability to obtain a single user via `get_user`.
Open `tutorial/quickstart/schema.py` and type the following:

## Creating GraphQL and GraphiQL views
Okay, now let's wire up the GraphQL and GraphiQL urls. On to `tutorial/urls.py`...
Unlike a RESTful API, there is only a single URL from which a GraphQL is accessed.
Requests to this URL are handled by Graphene's `GraphQLView` view.
Additionally, and interface for navigating this API will be very useful. Graphene
includes the [graphiql](https://github.com/graphql/graphiql) in-browser IDE
which assits and exploring and querying your new API. We'll add a URL for this too.
