	// The output should be:
	// Server is running at:8080
	// Shutdown the server gracefully...
	// Server was closed.

// Note:
// You can just use an http.Handler with your own signal notify channel and do that as you did with the net/http
// package. I will not show this way, but you can find many examples on the internet.
