Lessons on the GraphQL backend
Build and run GraphQL servers — from defining a schema to handling production traffic.
Getting Started
QueriesUnderstand how to structure GraphQL queries to request exactly the data you need — including fields, variables and fragments.
MutationsExplore how to modify data with mutations, including how to update and remove records through your schema.
SubscriptionsDiscover how GraphQL supports real-time data with subscriptions and how to use them effectively at scale.
ValidationSee how GraphQL ensures query correctness through validation rules and how common errors are detected early.
ExecutionLearn how resolvers power GraphQL execution and how the server processes and returns data for each query.
ResponseExplore how GraphQL structures its responses, including data, errors and extensions for custom metadata.
Best Practices
Serving Over HttpExplore how GraphQL operates over HTTP, including methods, headers, status codes and API endpoint design.
File UploadsHandle file uploads in GraphQL by wrapping them as mutations. Learn the recommended approach for integrating file handling into your API.
PaginationDiscover different pagination strategies in GraphQL, from simple slicing to fully connected edges and nodes.
PerformanceGet practical tips for improving GraphQL performance — from preventing N+1 problems to monitoring and compression.
Common GraphQL over HTTP ErrorsLearn about common 'graphql-http' errors and how to debug them.
CachingExplore caching techniques and ID strategies that make client-side performance and object reuse more effective.
