### Issues that arose:

* make sure you have MongoDB installed on your pc... smh

* make sure your imports are correct

* make sure your data is structured correctly in the schema

* its standard to make an input type for every unique mutation

### Imporant to know:

#### GraphQL Schema:

Defines the structure of the GraphQL API, including types, queries, and mutations. It acts as a contract between the client and the server, specifying what data can be queried or mutated.

#### Resolvers:

Resolvers actually hold the logic for connecting to the database and grabbing the desired data and returning it in the desired state. In this case, I wrote most of the logic in my "Database" package. 

#### Types:

Define the shape of the data. For example, Dog specifies fields like _id, name, and isGoodBoi.

#### Queries: 

Define read operations that clients can perform, such as fetching a Dog by ID or retrieving a list of dogs.

#### Mutations:

Define write operations that clients can perform, such as creating a new Dog.

#### Models:

help map locally created objects to the database (The models in this project are created automatically by gqlgen library)
