Introduction to Apollo GraphQL
Upcoming cohorts
Do you meet following questions when you design RESTful API?
- "Getting Login Name which is shown at page header" vs "Get Profile Information(include login name) in Profile Page", would you choose designing 2 APIs or 1 API doing these?
- To retrieving post list(include posts,pictures,comments), would you choose designing 1 API or 3 APIs(one get posts, another one get pictures and last one get comments) doing these?
- To retrieving chatroom's messages(include Room Name, Last Message and total number of online users), we need run 2 join operations getting these(Room join Message join user). But,it is very difficult for maintaining and debugging. Would any solutions resolve it without join operation?
GraphQL can answer all of these questions. Apollo GraphQL is used in the course.
