        According to <a href="www.graphql.org" _target="blank">graphql.org</a> "GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. GraphQL provides a complete and understandable description of the data in your API, gives clients the power to ask for exactly what they need and nothing more, makes it easier to evolve APIs over time, and enables powerful developer tools."
        This basically allows you to configure how you want your api response, let's call it strongly-typed API language. <br />
        Let's find out next why you should start using it and what are it's benefits: 
        <br />
        <ul>
          <li>
            No need to create lots of endpoints as you do in REST api
          </li>
          <li>
            No over-fetching or under-fetching, using the schemas will return you the exact data, usually using REST apis you will often get more data or not the whole data in the response that you need, probably because you are not projecting the response, with GraphQL what are you asking for that's what you get
          </li>
          <li>
            Client-side caching is available out of the box in several client libraries
          </li>
          <li>
            Cursor-based pagination provides a way to offer pagination across lists of data
          </li>
          <li>
            GraphQL APIs are built around a type system, this makes it a strongly-typed query language and it provides great transparency for developers
          </li>
          <li>
            Versioning GraphQL APIs does not work the same as REST APIs, instead of increasing the version, in GraphQL you can introduce a new field and deprecate the old one if it's a breaking change in your API
          </li>
        </ul>
        <br/>
