In this course, we'll be creating a [Node](https://nodejs.org/en/) server from scratch with the help of the [Express](https://expressjs.com/) framework. We'll then introduce the benefits of strongly-typed code and integrate [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org) into our Node server application.

We will compare GitHub's old RESTful API against its new GraphQL API. We will explore the problems GraphQL aims to solve. And finally, we will create our own GraphQL API using [Apollo](https://www.apollographql.com/)!

In this course, we'll show you how to create your first GraphQL server with Node.js and TypeScript
