Summary

The GitHub team implements GraphQL into their API to provide a complete and understandable description of the data, giving clients the power to ask for exactly what they need. This allows for more efficient data retrieval and easier evolution of APIs over time. The GitHub GraphQL Explorer is a tool that demonstrates the capabilities of GraphQL by querying data from the yarnpkg repository in just one call. GraphQL enables powerful developer tools and makes it possible to retrieve specific information without having to make multiple REST calls, making it an empowering technology for developers.
