REST API

REST vs GraphQL: which is better for frontend-driven apps?

The question is about REST API .

Answer:
GraphQL enables frontend teams to request only the data they need, combine resources in a single call, and reduce over-fetching, making it ideal for highly interactive, frontend-driven apps. REST remains easier for simple APIs and offers clearer caching. For complex frontend needs, GraphQL is usually more powerful.
