GraphQL is a query language for APIs that allows clients to request only the necessary data and provides a single endpoint for all operations, enabling real-time updates. To use GraphQL with React, one must install and initialize Apollo Client, define queries, and implement subscriptions for live data. Key benefits include efficient data fetching, simplified API management, real-time updates, and a strongly typed schema, making it suitable for various applications like social media, e-commerce, and collaborative tools.

What is GraphQL?
💡 GraphQL is a query language for APIs that:
Allows clients to request only the data they
need.
Provides a single endpoint for all data
operations (queries, mutations,
subscriptions).
Enables real-time updates with
subscriptions.
⚡ Key Use Case: Building flexible, efficient, and
scalable data-driven apps.

Key Benefits of GraphQL
1️⃣ Efficient Data Fetching
Fetch only the data you need, reducing
payload size.
2️⃣ Single Endpoint
Simplify API management with one endpoint
for all operations.
3️⃣ Real-Time Updates
Use subscriptions for live data updates (e.g.,
chat apps, live dashboards).
4️⃣ Strongly Typed Schema
Define clear data structures and avoid
runtime errors.

a single query.
2️⃣ E-Commerce Platforms
Retrieve product details, reviews, and
recommendations dynamically.
3️⃣ Dashboards
Build real-time dashboards with live data
updates.
4️⃣ Collaborative Tools
Enable real-time collaboration (e.g., Google
Docs, Trello).
