Is it using an external source i.e. https://leetcode.com/graphql for collecting the data, do you have your own database?

The rate-limit is 60 requests/hour. Just remove limiter variable from the app.ts file to bypass it. But if u want to change the request limit change limit and to change the time limit change windowMs.

NO! I also use the same API point to retrieve the data.

Till today I don't see any rate limit for the graphQL API
