Dev.to is a community platform for developers, offering resources, discussions, and networking opportunities to empower individuals in their coding journey. Developers can learn new programming languages, frameworks, and tools, engage in discussions on best practices, and share their experiences with fellow developers to enhance their skills and grow their professional network.

Frontend developers work with a lot of data manipulating in the process. In this post I will talk about how can a frontend developer be more productive and have a better developer experience by simply using GraphQL. GraphQL has only one endpoint and is self documenting. GraphiQL is a powerful tool that lets you test your queries and check out the documentation.

5 reasons why Frontend Developers love GraphQL

Tl; dr
1 - Only one endpoint;
2 - Self documenting;
3 - No more underfetching or overfetching (you can query for the exact data you need);
4 - GraphiQL, the GraphQL playground, where you can check docs and check your queries;
5 - Apollo Client, especially beacause of the custom hooks “useQuery”, “useLazyQuery” and “useMutation”.

Really like how GraphQl makes the schema’s way more clear to the end user.
Well done on doing this write-up 👏
