GRAPHQL MYTHS

Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

This article debunks three common GraphQL myths: that it only uses POST requests, forces everything through a single `/graphql` endpoint, and allows dangerous arbitrary queries from users. These issues come from default configurations rather than inherent GraphQL limitations. Persisted operations (where queries are pre-registered and referenced by hash) solve all three problems by enabling GET requests, creating meaningful URLs, and restricting queries to a trusted allowlist.
