Talk:
GraphQL - The People's Query Language
You may have heard whispers of GraphQL being the latest hot technology in API development. Created internally by Facebook in 2012 and released to the public in 2015, GraphQL is a query language tailored towards making relational data easier to fetch.
In this talk, we'll discuss the history and purpose of GraphQL, common misconceptions about GraphQL, and setting up GraphQL in a Node/Express back-end. We'll also take a look at GraphQL's development tool GraphiQL and how it self-documents your resources. If you're curious about GraphQL and how to make working with relational data a breeze, join us!
