GraphQL is increasingly the technology of choice for developers who build APIs. It allows front-end developers to query multiple data sources with a single GraphQL endpoint. It helps the API developer avoid writing complex logic for every possible scenario the front-end teams might need, yet safely expose the data.
GraphQL is incredibly powerful, but it can take a lot of work and code to build an API. We’ll look at how StepZen makes it easy to build a GraphQL API that connects to various data sources without having to build and maintain a server or write complex resolver code. Join us to learn how to
- create an API that connects to any backend - REST, GraphQL, or database - through configuration and a few lines of code
- leverage GraphQL directives, including StepZen’s custom @rest, @dbquery, @materializer, and @sequence to power your GraphQL schemas
- easily link types that pull data from entirely different data sources
- execute multiple queries in sequence
