description	GraphQL gives clients exactly the data they need - no more, no less. One endpoint, typed schema, introspection. But the flexibility that makes it powerful also makes it dangerous.

The schema is the API documentation. Design it carefully.

Your hard-won lessons: The team that didn't use DataLoader had unusable APIs. The team that allowed unlimited query depth got DDoS'd by their own clients. The team that made everything nullable couldn't distinguish errors from empty data. You've l
