What Is GraphQL? (Part 1 of 4)

In this short video we compare a REST API to a GraphQL API using a concrete example so you see how they match up and understand the differences. But what is GraphQL at a high-level? It's an expressive query language for your data. It offers a more flexible approach for working with APIs in a number of ways:
* GraphQL lets you query your data and get exactly what you want. Nothing more, nothing less.
* With GraphQL you can query multiple related resources in a single request. In other words, you can query across relationships.
* GraphQL also gives you the flexibility to query related objects and get back a response that’s exactly the same shape as the query itself.

Really, really good definition. I got 3 main points:
1. Nothing more, Nothing less
2. Multiple resources in a Single request
3. Query Shape == Response Shape
Thanks a lot.
