In order to build the backend to any app, there are a plethora of framework and languages you can use to accomplish this. However, GraphQL is by far the most simplistic and helpful API structure I have come across in my development journey. Thus, I will be building a GraphQL API today using MongoDB, Apollo Server, GraphQL, and Heroku.

Let me know in the comments your thoughts on GraphQL or any of the frameworks used in today's video.
