GraphQL
GraphQL is an architecture designed to build and consume Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). It is used for communication between a client (web or mobile application) and a server.

of the developers use GraphQL.
-
Strong and structured schema
Diagram that defines all data types and their relationships.
-
Flexible queries
Possible specification of the data fields to be obtained in the response (name, email).
-
Unique endpoint
Unlike REST, all interactions with the API go through a single point.
-
Mutations for modifications
Operations similar to queries but designed to modify the data state.
-
Pagination and integrated filters
Standardized mechanism for managing pagination, filters, and sorting at the query level.
