GraphQL is a way in which you can communicate with the server side of an application, in order to send and receive data. It is currently one of the newest and most commonly used technologies for interfacing with data between applications, and it is fundamentally the way that your frontend, be it a browser or a mobile app, will communicate with the server side.
