The headless cms graphql revolution
Ask for what you need, get exactly that
Apps using GraphQL combined with a headless CMS are fast and stable because it is not the server which controls the data they get, they are.
Contrary to the REST API dogma, a GraphQL query to your API gets exactly what you ask for, nothing more and nothing less, that is why GraphQL queries always return predictable results. Read more about the advantages of the GraphQL API on their official website

DatoCMS delivers on the promise of what a headless CMS should be. Richly model your content structure and access it through simple APIs, while presenting an easy-to-use editor for non-technical clients.
Move faster with powerful developer tools
Know exactly what data you can request from your API without leaving your editor, highlight potential issues before sending a query, and take advantage of improved code intelligence. GraphQL makes it easy to build powerful tools like GraphiQL by leveraging your API’s type system.
Get many resources in a single request
GraphQL queries access not just the properties of one resource but also smoothly follow references between them. While typical REST APIs require loading from multiple URLs, GraphQL APIs get all the data your app needs in a single request. Apps using GraphQL can be quick even on slow mobile network connections.
