The instructor explains GraphQL concepts well with a simple yet good example. Not a very advanced course, but, definitely helpful for the newbies for GraphQL.

Syntax user in the demos is a little out of date, and it would be nice to have the sample DB provided on the lecture about it since the creation of it is not covered. Otherwise, it’s a great overview of the tool, and was extremely helpful in getting me started on GraphQL

Great course, easy to follow whilst also explaining the concepts well. Be good if we knew the source code (basically just for the mock DB) were available to download before the end of the course! Also, watching you manually write all the imports / correcting syntax errors etc is a bit unnecessary. Overall great though!
