GraphQL
A query language for APIs that sends exactly the data a page needs.
- Category
- API
- Website
- graphql.org
GraphQL lets the front end ask for exactly the data a screen needs, so pages get faster and API changes get safer.
I use it with headless CMSs and e-commerce APIs, where a typed schema doubles as living documentation for the whole team.
What I use it for
- Headless CMS queries
- Shopify storefront APIs
- Typed API contracts
- Efficient data fetching
