Express framework vs graphql

Parse Server 📡
#1

Hi,

I am considering using express.js framework or graphql.
It looks like graphql is more complicated but possibly more efficient.
Does anyone have any comments on this topic?

Thanks,

I’m using express and parse and I’m using rest api. It’s enough for me. But for graphql @Moumouls can assist you better. I don’t know much about graphql.

I think that’s actually not the right question. You probably want to know REST vs GraphQL. Talking about Express, both APIs can be mounted in an Express app. Both APIs are super cool. GraphQL probably will require a longer initial learning curve while REST is pretty straightforward to be used via the SDKs. I’d suggest you to mount both APIs in an Express application and try out.
