GraphQL is a query language for APIs that gives clients exact data they need 🎯
In simple words
GraphQL lets the client decide
what data to get and how much to get 🧠

• Too much data is returned
• Or required data is missing
GraphQL solves this problem ✅
🧠 Why GraphQL is Powerful

• No over fetching
• No under fetching

• Dashboards with custom data
• Modern frontend frameworks
🔄 How GraphQL Works
Client sends a query 📤
Server processes the query 🧠
Only requested data is returned 📩
💻 Example: GraphQL Query

user {
id

}
}
