[Edit] I am using spring boot 2.7.3, the url to graphql seems to be [ /graphiql ] even that it says [ /graphql ] in the console. it works now
original question:
no matter what I did I still cant see the graphQL in the browser, I even cloned your repo and still the same, I only get an empty page

First of all, thanks for sharing this content, it was pretty awesome. If you do not mind to answer a question: If we have just one endpoint, how can we manage the code architecture when we varied types of business object?

Hello,

I'm new to spring boot and graphql so my question might be dump but I didn't see any answer on internet so i'm asking it here.
What's the difference between the graphql resolvers and the sring boot Controller ?
Most of the tutorials I see on google and youtube are using these specific ways (some are also using services but it seems less popular) of mapping a query to an execution that will retrieve data from a repository.
I can't find are the differences, do they have the same purpose or maybe I am misunderdanting something ? What is the best way to make that schema mapping between query and execution ?
I would be glad to have your thoughts about this, if my question isn't clear, tell me how i can explain it better.

Thanks for your help

Great video by the way, you are the only tutorial i managed to succeed, but i still need to understand that shit with the resolvers aha

Hello, just wanted to say great tutorial. I'm getting the whitelabel error page when trying to access localhost:8080. I've tried changing the @Controller to @RestController and copied and pasted from the github page to ensure no typos. Any idea what could be the issue?
