- tshaddox 6y agoJSON:API provides some of the same functionality as GraphQL, like specifying which fields and nested resources you want, but at that point you’re going to have the same problems with ensuring good performance with any combination of included fields and relationships.
- fiddlerwoaroof 6y agoI don’t disagree: I tend to find REST + openapi codegen a more compelling developer experience then yet another query DSL.
