SWAPI GraphQL
SWAPI GraphQL is a GraphQL wrapper over the Star Wars dataset, hosted as the GraphQL Foundation's own live example at graphql.org — a single flexible /graphql endpoint (fronted by an embedded GraphiQL explorer) in place of REST's fixed routes. It draws on the same underlying Star Wars data as the swapi.dev and swapi.tech REST APIs but exposes it as a queryable graph instead of pre-shaped JSON responses.
