Launching GitHub's public GraphQL API - GitHub Universe 2017

Presented by Brooks Swinnerton, GitHub.

In this talk, Brooks Swinnerton will discuss why GitHub made the decision to create a public GraphQL API and the things that they’ve learned along the way with respect to authorization, API design, and tooling. The interesting challenges of a public GraphQL API aren’t limited to your codebase; we will also discuss some of the ways that GitHub is working to introduce the new world of GraphQL to its users and integrators, as well as how we plan to support and grow the API for years to come.

Unfortunately the audio is messed up. It has tiny gaps that make listening to it uncomfortable and miss parts of words.

Nice, actually also a good crash course on API's in general.
