- **Extendable Schema**: Easily add functionality with functions like `register_graphql_field` and `register_graphql_connection`.

    - Plugins like [WPGraphQL Smart Cache](https://github.com/wp-graphql/wp-graphql-smart-cache), [WPGraphQL for ACF](https://github.com/wp-graphql/wp-graphql-acf) and [other extension plugins](https://wpgraphql.com/extensions) demonstrate the power of extendability.

- **Modern Framework Integration**: Works seamlessly with [Next.js](https://vercel.com/guides/wordpress-with-vercel), [Svelte](https://www.okupter.com/blog/headless-wordpress-graphql-sveltekit), [Astro](https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/cms/wordpress/) and other frameworks.

- **Optimized Performance**: Query only the data you need. Collect multiple resources in one request, reducing round-trips. Use [WPGraphQL Smart Cache](https://github.com/wp-graphql/wp-graphql-smart-cache) for enhanced performance and network-level caching and cache-invalidation.

- **Developer Tools**: Explore the schema with tools like the [GraphiQL IDE](https://www.wpgraphql.com/docs/wp-graphiql) and [WordPress Playground](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-graphql/?preview=1).
