GraphQL offers a fundamental a shift in how you can query, mutate, and even think about structuring backend data. The standardization of scalars, types, interfaces, and mutations leads to powerful ways of interacting with your data on both the client and the server. In addition, the robust client side tooling makes developing data rich applications a breeze!

Join Tim for this talk as he shares the fundamentals and benefits of GraphQL, discussing where it shines and where there's still a bit yet to refine. You'll then see a real world application demonstration with Node.js and Tim will show how it interacts with the client via Apollo. Learn how DataLoader, Facebook's data fetching library, can be used to drastically reduce queries and make your GraphQL experience super performant out of the box.
