GraphQL interview questions, quiz and handbook in your Learning Dashboard
What you will learn
- Clients ask for exactly the fields they need in one request.
- Naive resolvers cause N+1 database queries.
- DataLoader batches and caches loads per request.
Why teams adopt GraphQL
REST endpoints often return too much or too little, so clients make several calls and discard fields. GraphQL exposes one typed schema; each client asks for exactly the shape it needs.
The schema doubles as documentation and a contract, and tools generate types for the client automatically.
