You are a gem for programmers. The content is just flawless. Base definitions, clear language, beautiful intuitive visualisations. No bullshitting with annoying ads or sponsors or other distracting crap. 100 seconds to the second. This is precious to students, self learners and even professionals. I am a senior team lead in an IT company - whenever someone asks me about XY technology/framework/language I just say "youtube fireship XY". Huge respects. There are very few content creators like you in the field. Stay safe!

I passed 10 courses in 100 seconds, now I'm a senior software engineer. I'm going to take 10 more courses and become a tech lead.

Love the way he puts memes + content under 100 secs.

I need "The Meaning of Life in 100 Seconds" badly.

For common uses, GraphQL is a over-engineered solution

[SameerBhilare]

That "how dare you" was the best part 😆

[SunsetofMana]

This was a phenomenal video. Just phenomenal how you managed to explain all the key concepts so concisely. All the best wishes and thank you for making this content

[samarmohan]

Yes, Greta Thunberg yelling at people for over fetching.

Edit: I want my heart back

[CodingNuggets]

Hit that 100 seconds for sure. I'm always expecting these to be exactly 100 seconds long videos, but it doesn't even matter because your content is always top-notch. See you soon!

"Do you know GraphQL?"

"Sure I do."

"Great, your interview is tomorrow."

I needed to see this a long time ago! I always hear youtubers talking about graphql, i've even done a tutorial in it, and I still had no idea what it was actually trying to achieve. thanks jeff

[eneskavcakar]

"How dare you" part got me 😅

[loopymccoy]

Amazing how a guy on youtube can explain it in 100 seconds and you're completely satisfied, 0 complaints whatsoever, perfect.

[David-ypbk]

Thank you for always coming to the rescue and for showing me ways to spend my time well. I just started to mess with API's and I have a funny feeling that this will be a big help! :D

[sjn_]

This man's teaching skill along with the humor he puts in, is in another level

[complexity]

Does this guy have a team?
He condenses information like a genius. I use his videos to get how the project is designed, then I grep the pages. This video allowed me to skip pages and pages of GraphQL bloat documentation.
Good Video (even after 2 years).

"there's a lot more on the way"
thanks for making these. You are awesome! (required)

There's a small drawback to graphql querying and that is request caching in the browser. The browser's caching system caches a particular reques endpointt as a key and it's response as a value, however graphql only has 1 endpoint and that makes it difficult to cache each individual request if they all go to one endpoint. This just means that everytime you make a request to a /graphql endpoint, the cached data for the cache key "graphql" will be overwritten. Kind of an annoying issue to fix

I was scared to watch this video back in the day you released it, but since I'm nearly done with the GraphQL module of this NodeJS course I'm doing, I've came here to watch this video at last. I can understand everything and I really like the power of GraphQL. I'm not experienced enough to tell when it's better and when it's worse than REST, but I really like both.
