@notrab Moving on…
@notrab GraphQL is not a database
@notrab GraphQL is not a REST killer
@notrab json:api spec is good alternative
@notrab – Monzo “The Monzo API is designed to be
a predictable and intuitive interface for interacting with users’ accounts. We offer both a REST API and webhooks.”
@notrab GraphQL is not just a React thing
@notrab But it’s awesome with React
@notrab What is GraphQL?
@notrab A specification
@notrab A query language

@notrab /v2/users/1/friends /v2/orders?include=items /posts/3/author/friends
@notrab { users(id: 2) { friends { id name friends
{ name } } } orders { items { id name } } }
