GraphiQL is an amazing tool that lets you explore your GraphQL API in an interactive manner. Last week, the Graphcool team took GraphiQL to a new level, building a fully-featured GraphQL IDE on top of it: GraphQL Playground! Some of its top features are:
• Sharing queries and mutations
• Code generation, e.g. for Apollo Client
• Improved API documentation
An indispensable asset in every GraphQL developer's toolbox!
