Add policy page on Talawa-API GraphQL resolver design

[palisadoes]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We need to add a page under the Talawa-API developers section on how we design our GraphQL resolvers. The conversation here needs to be converted into a Talawa-API policy.

@EshaanAgg @xoldyckk Please take a look

@palisadoes The linked discussion is quiet specific to only cursor based pagination resolvers.

As I see it, we can create a general page highlighting some common design principles, and in it we can add a specific section about the cursor pagination.

I can start working on it as soon as #1187 is merged in Talawa API, taking it as a basis for good practices.

[palisadoes]

I created a design guide page that we can use as a starting point.

@palisadoes @EshaanAgg is correct that the discussion is specific to how we model the API for connections, not the complete industry-standard graphql design practices.

I had mentioned in my GSoC proposal how we would be going about making sure that graphql API in talawa-api is up to production standards by making sure the API design follows all practices here ->

https://graphql.org/learn/best-practices/

@EshaanAgg would you like to pass this issue to me? I will create a general standard API design doc then you can take care of documenting the connections resolvers part. That would be a lot better as I already have code snippets ready about this the how we can get rid of the antipattern nature of graphql in talawa-api

[EshaanAgg]

Sure @kb-0311. You can tag me once the general document is ready, and I'll then complete the pagination part.

Unassigning myself. @palisadoes please assign @kb-0311 for now.
