What is GraphQL?

An alternative to REST APIs that lets you request exactly the data you need in a single call

Why It Matters

GraphQL can make your app faster by reducing unnecessary data transfer and simplifying complex data requests

Instead of making three separate API calls for user details, posts, and comments, GraphQL lets you get all three in one request

A way for different software applications to talk to each other and share data

A standard way to design APIs that uses simple web addresses and common actions like GET (read) and POST (create)

A request to retrieve, create, update, or delete data from a database
