Swapping GraphQL servers with the least effort

The text discusses the practice of "coding against interfaces, not implementations" in the context of GraphQL, focusing on the benefits of using GraphQL queries as intermediaries between applications and servers. This approach allows developers to switch between different GraphQL servers without altering the application logic, as the query serves as a consistent interface. The article explains how schemas from different GraphQL servers, like WPGraphQL and the GraphQL API for WordPress, can differ, necessitating modifications to the queries rather than the underlying business logic. By introducing techniques like field aliases and the self field, developers can adapt queries to accommodate schema differences while maintaining the application's core logic. The text emphasizes the efficiency of this method in minimizing code changes and highlights the utility of tools like LogRocket for monitoring and debugging GraphQL requests in production environments.
