# 📖 Overview
In this repository, I'm documenting my progress as I dive deep into the world of GraphQL. With the help of Apollo Server, I've built a GraphQL server and have been actively working on various GraphQL queries and mutations. Join me as I explore this technology and build a simple schema to manage and query video game data.
## 🏗️ Project Structure
### 🚀 index.ts
The heart of this project is the `index.ts` file. Here's a brief overview of what I've accomplished:
- Setup an Apollo Server, incorporating the defined schema (`typeDefs`) and the corresponding resolvers (`resolvers`).
- Skillfully crafted resolvers for querying games, authors, reviews, and related data.
- Added mutations for adding, updating, and deleting games.
### 💾 database.ts
Within `database.ts`, I've created mock data to serve as the initial dataset for the GraphQL server. This data consists of:
- A collection of video games, each with details such as title, platform, and a unique ID.
- A list of authors, including their names and verification status.
- A set of reviews, each linked to an author and a game, complete with ratings and content.
### 📋 schema.ts
In `schema.ts`, I've defined the GraphQL schema using the Schema Definition Language (SDL). The schema outlines the various types, queries, mutations, and input types utilized in this project:
- Types for `Game`, `Review`, and `Author`, each with their own distinct fields and relationships.
- Queries designed to fetch games, reviews, authors, and individual items via their unique IDs.
- Mutations for adding, deleting, and updating game data.
## 🧠 Learning Focus
This project has been my personal playground for mastering GraphQL. My learning journey has included:
- Crafting a GraphQL schema using SDL.
- Skillfully implementing GraphQL resolvers to handle queries and mutations.
- Leveraging Apollo Server to set up a GraphQL server.
- Engaging in basic CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) through GraphQL mutations.
- Forming connections between GraphQL types, such as the relationships between games, authors, and reviews.
## 📈 My Progress
Throughout this journey, I've achieved various milestones:
- Successfully set up a GraphQL server using Apollo Server.
- Created a robust schema to define the structure of data.
- Implemented resolvers to handle queries and mutations with precision.
- Gained experience in establishing relationships between different types.
- Improved my ability to model and manipulate data using GraphQL.
