# TypeGraphQL Backend API

An example backend API using TypeGraphQL library.

It's a GraphQL API in Node.js with TypeScript. In

this demo app I explore how TypeGraphQL addresses

the issue of reduntant code often associated with

this tech stack. It does this by allowing a developer

to define their API using classes and decorators.

## Getting started

Getting the server to run locally is as simple as

cloning the repo, installing dependenices, and

running `npm run start:dev`. This will spin up a GraphQL

Playground environment with hot reloading.

```shell

git clone https://github.com/wurde/ts-graphql-api

cd ts-graphql-api

npm install

npm run start:dev

// Open up http://localhost:4000/graphql

```

## Apollo Server

For a GraphQL server I use Apollo. This allows

passing in an executable `schema`, which combines

both type definitions and resolvers.

## SQLite with TypeORM

I use SQLite as a local data store and TypeORM for 

object-relational mapping (ORM).
