📖 Overview

In this repository, I'm documenting my progress as I dive deep into the world of GraphQL. With the help of Apollo Server, I've built a GraphQL server and have been actively working on various GraphQL queries and mutations. Join me as I explore this technology and build a simple schema to manage and query video game data.

🏗️ Project Structure

🚀 index.ts

The heart of this project is the index.ts file. Here's a brief overview of what I've accomplished:

• Setup an Apollo Server, incorporating the defined schema (typeDefs) and the corresponding resolvers (resolvers).
• Skillfully crafted resolvers for querying games, authors, reviews, and related data.
• Added mutations for adding, updating, and deleting games.

💾 database.ts

Within database.ts, I've created mock data to serve as the initial dataset for the GraphQL server. This data consists of:

• A collection of video games, each with details such as title, platform, and a unique ID.
• A list of authors, including their names and verification status.
• A set of reviews, each linked to an author and a game, complete with ratings and content.

📋 schema.ts

In schema.ts, I've defined the GraphQL schema using the Schema Definition Language (SDL). The schema outlines the various types, queries, mutations, and input types utilized in this project:

• Types for Game, Review, and Author, each with their own distinct fields and relationships.
• Queries designed to fetch games, reviews, authors, and individual items via their unique IDs.
• Mutations for adding, deleting, and updating game data.

🧠 Learning Focus

This project has been my personal playground for mastering GraphQL. My learning journey has included:

• Crafting a GraphQL schema using SDL.
• Skillfully implementing GraphQL resolvers to handle queries and mutations.
• Leveraging Apollo Server to set up a GraphQL server.
• Engaging in basic CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) through GraphQL mutations.
• Forming connections between GraphQL types, such as the relationships between games, authors, and reviews.

📈 My Progress

Throughout this journey, I've achieved various milestones:

• Successfully set up a GraphQL server using Apollo Server.
• Created a robust schema to define the structure of data.
• Implemented resolvers to handle queries and mutations with precision.
• Gained experience in establishing relationships between different types.
• Improved my ability to model and manipulate data using GraphQL.
