 ### REST API vs. GraphQL
 
-The diagram below shows a quick comparison between REST and GraphQL.
+When it comes to API design, REST and GraphQL each have their own strengths and weaknesses.

-- GraphQL is a query language for APIs developed by Meta. It provides a complete description of the data in the API and gives clients the power to ask for exactly what they need.
+REST
 
-- GraphQL servers sit in between the client and the backend services.
-GraphQL can aggregate multiple REST requests into one query. GraphQL server organizes the resources in a graph.
+- Uses standard HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE for CRUD operations.
+- Works well when you need simple, uniform interfaces between separate services/applications.
+- Caching strategies are straightforward to implement.
+- The downside is it may require multiple roundtrips to assemble related data from separate endpoints.
+
+GraphQL
+
+- Provides a single endpoint for clients to query for precisely the data they need.
+- Clients specify the exact fields required in nested queries, and the server returns optimized payloads containing just those fields.
+- Supports Mutations for modifying data and Subscriptions for real-time notifications.
+- Great for aggregating data from multiple sources and works well with rapidly evolving frontend requirements.
+- However, it shifts complexity to the client side and can allow abusive queries if not properly safeguarded
+- Caching strategies can be more complicated than REST.
+
+The best choice between REST and GraphQL depends on the specific requirements of the application and development team. GraphQL is a good fit for complex or frequently changing frontend needs, while REST suits applications where simple and consistent contracts are preferred.
+
+Neither API approach is a silver bullet. Carefully evaluating requirements and tradeoffs is important to pick the right style. Both REST and GraphQL are valid options for exposing data and powering modern applications.
 
-- GraphQL supports queries, mutations (applying data modifications to resources), and subscriptions (receiving notifications on schema modifications).
