Introduction to GraphQL
summary
States that GraphQL can replace or complement REST, demos against GitHub production data and a small PHP app, and shows concrete features: queries that query mirrors response with nested objects, aliases, fragments and variables; mutations that create repos and return requested fields; introspection and deprecation metadata; tooling such as GraphiQL, webonyx/graphql-php and API Platform; notes single single /graphql endpoint deployment, caching pitfalls, error payloads with exact locations, and that the live demos work end-to-end.
