GraphQL Query Language

GraphQL is a query language for APIs that allows users to request specific data they need from a server, rather than receiving a fixed set of information. Think of it like ordering food at a restaurant where you can customize your meal instead of choosing from a standard menu. With GraphQL, you can ask for exactly what you want, including nested information, in one request, which reduces unnecessary data transfer. This makes it more efficient and flexible compared to traditional APIs, enabling developers to build applications that respond quickly to users’ needs.
