GraphQL pros and cons (as compared to REST): https://www.altexsoft.com/blog/engineering/graphql-core-features-architecture-pros-and-cons/ Pros include:

No over- and under-fetching problems.
Validation and type checking out-of-the-box.
API evolution without versioning.

Cons include:

Overkill for small applications.
Web caching complexity.
Takes a while to understand.
