💡what is graphql ?

firstly it's a query language for APIs. Unlike traditional REST APIs, GraphQL allows clients to request only the specific data they need, reducing over-fetching or under-fetching of information.

graphql

In GraphQL, we make fetch requests to a single endpoint [https://example.com/graphql],

which means that from a single endpoint, we can send requests and receive responses. Unlike REST APIs, which might require a unique endpoint for each function or resource
