gqlgen: Build a faster GraphQL server

GraphQL, a query language developed by Facebook, offers an efficient alternative to REST APIs by allowing all requests to be made as POST requests to a single URL, while Go, a compiled language created by Google, is known for its fast performance and easy syntax. The article explores gqlgen, a tool that facilitates writing GraphQL APIs using Go, highlighting the advantages of both technologies. It provides a step-by-step guide to building a simple to-do list application with gqlgen, demonstrating how GraphQL's self-documenting nature and Go's speed can be combined to create efficient applications without extensive boilerplate code. The article also emphasizes gqlgen's ability to generate necessary models and resolvers from a schema, simplifying the development process. Additionally, it touches on the importance of monitoring GraphQL APIs in production to ensure reliability, suggesting tools like LogRocket for debugging and tracking network requests.
