We spoke with Jason Bahl, Principal Software Engineer at WP Engine in our latest API Intersection podcast episode. Bahl is the creator and maintainer of WPGraphQL, a free, open-source WordPress plugin that provides an extendable GraphQL schema and API for any WordPress site. Bahl helps reduce friction for developers and site owners who want to use WordPress as a CMS.
GraphQL is an open-source specification for data retrieval from server to client. We had the pleasure of discussing REST versus GraphQL and the many benefits of using GraphQL for API development.
