About GraphQL

GraphQL is a powerful data query and manipulation language for APIs. It develops flexible and efficient ways to retrieve and deliver specific data to applications by using a tree-like query structure. With its unique schema definition, GraphQL enables clients to request exact data requirements, reducing round trips between the client and server.

In this context, GraphQL provides an introspection system, allowing queries about the schema itself, like getting types, fields, and their respective details. For instance, in the provided code snippet, the query is performed on a type named "Droid," which returns information on its fields, including "id" as a non-null String, "name," "friends," an list of Character interfaces, and "appearsIn," another list of Episode enum values. By using GraphQL's introspection capabilities, developers can understand the underlying data structures easily and adapt their applications accordingly.
