I've been interested on GraphQL for a while now, so this project is a playground where I practice and learn a little bit.
These are the steps I'll take in order to learn a little bit more about GraphQL:
-
How can I make a simple CRUD (w/o database connection) in GraphQL using mutations and queries?
-
How do I connect to a database?
-
How do I do user authentication?
-
How do I connect to external data sources?
I'll try to tackle these one step at a time.
Just for the record, I will be using Apollo rather than express-graphql because apollo lets us use
something called GraphQL Playground to test out our queries, express-graphql also provides us a GUI to test queries called
GraphiQL, but GraphQL Playground has a nicer UI.
