About the Book
In the ever-evolving landscape of web development, GraphQL has emerged as a powerful query language that addresses the limitations of traditional REST APIs. This guide delves deep into GraphQL, starting with its foundational principles and swiftly advancing to complex topics that will equip you with the skills you need to understand this technology.
As you progress, you’ll cover advanced concepts such as schema design, security enhancements, and error handling. You'll also explore essential topics such as federation and the transition from REST to GraphQL, gaining a comprehensive understanding of these critical areas. The book helps you learn through practical examples in TypeScript, guiding you through building scalable and secure GraphQL backends. Additionally, you’ll get up to speed with the intricacies of frontend integration.
By the end of this book, you’ll have the skills you need to implement real-world GraphQL solutions, creating efficient and robust applications that meet modern web development demands.
