Since its introduction in 2015, GraphQL has rapidly grown to be one of the most discussed technologies poised to change how companies structure and build their APIs. Structured to require only one endpoint for fetching data, GraphQL has been noted to be a flexible and efficient alternative to REST. Yet, due to its release in the recent years, there are not many tools available for GraphQL. For that reason, we decided to build GraphnomiQL, enabling users to visualize and edit their schema, no matter how large or complex. The application translates types and their fields into a network of nodes connected by edges while providing the users the option of adding and deleting new types, and fields. Furthermore, users may export their edited introspection schema to be used in current or future projects.
