First step into graphQL

Primary LanguageTypeScript

First step into GraphQL.

This project is instructed at this tutorial

I tried many articles before but with a fresher in TypeScript and GraphQL like me, all of them are not for me. But this one is straightforward and tell me the fundamental explanation.

I followed this instruction but not Webpack. It doesn't work for me. So I use tsc-watch instead.

In GraphQL, there are 3 important things we need to know.

  • GraphQL server: In REST, we use HTTP server, but here, we use GraphQL server.
  • type-defs.ts: Define custom data types, queries, mutations here.
  • resolvers: implement queries, mutations.

Wrapping up

Just few simple things from this tutorial and change a bit to undrestand. Still learning from other articles, then will be back to change and write more.
