GitHub has introduced a GraphQL version of the Octokit.NET library to enhance the integration of GitHub's API within .NET applications, which traditionally used the REST API. This shift to GraphQL, a query language developed by Facebook, allows for the retrieval of comprehensive data with a single request, addressing performance bottlenecks experienced when loading lists of pull requests in Visual Studio. The new library, designed to be intuitive for .NET developers, replicates GraphQL's syntax while maintaining the benefits of static compilation, resulting in significantly improved loading times for pull request lists. The GitHub API v4, now based on GraphQL, is particularly advantageous for .NET developers seeking to incorporate dynamic data retrieval in their applications, and the GitHub for Visual Studio team encourages feedback from the developer community on this new implementation.
