Umm what? Is this specific to NodeJS or something? Cause Django and DRF allow one to very easily and very quickly creating high quality REST APIs that are self-documenting and trivial to maintain. Pretty sure rails and go have similar packages and methods to allow for making excellent REST APIs. In fact I've found it a massive pain and a huge performance cost to add GraphQL to such projects. It's far slower than the REST calls
