Create a Node.js GraphQL Server

GraphQL has been part of my daily routine for a few months and it took some time to learn. I reduced the GraphQL learning curve by using self-hosted GraphQL backends but as soon as I understood how Apollo Client worked, I wanted to learn how the server side worked!

Being a huge fan of JavaScript I took the Node.js server implementation approach and discovered express-graphql and graphql-server repos.

I decided to share my experience in a video series demonstrating how to create a GraphQL server using Node.js to hopefully help you get started with GraphQL.

Let me know what you think in the comments below, on YouTube & on Twitter.
