Overview
GraphQL is a powerful query language for APIs that allows clients to request only the data they need. Unlike REST, which has fixed endpoints, GraphQL provides a single endpoint to access various data types. This flexibility makes it easier to develop and maintain applications. In this introduction, students will learn the basics of GraphQL and how it can improve data fetching in web applications.
