GraphQL Playground is a graphical IDE for exploring and testing GraphQL APIs, featuring autocompletion, interactive docs, and real-time subscription support. The repository is now archived, with future development moved to GraphiQL.
Use cases
- test graphql queries against an api
- explore graphql schema with interactive docs
- debug graphql subscriptions in real time
- manage multiple graphql endpoints and projects
- embed a graphql ide in an express or koa server
When to choose
- you need a standalone graphql IDE on macOS via Homebrew
- you maintain a legacy setup already using playground middleware
When to avoid
- starting a new project - use GraphiQL instead, as this repo is archived
- you need ongoing support or security fixes
- you need a maintained middleware for serving the IDE
