Modern GraphQL from Scratch: Build Type-Safe APIs with TypeScript, Secure Schemas, Federation & Edge Deployment


Overview

Build the future of APIs with GraphQL the modern way-type-safe, secure, fast, and ready for production. In 2025, successful GraphQL development requires more than knowing queries and mutations. You need strong TypeScript integration, resilient resolver patterns, secure schemas, federation, performance tuning, and edge-ready deployment. This book gives you all of that in one complete, hands-on guide. Modern GraphQL from Scratch teaches you how to build world-class GraphQL systems using TypeScript, Node.js 20+, GraphQL Yoga, Apollo Federation 2, GraphQL Code Generator, and modern edge runtimes. It starts at the fundamentals and takes you to professional-level architecture through clear explanations, in-depth examples, and practical labs in every chapter. You'll learn how to design clean schemas, write strongly typed resolvers, eliminate the N+1 problem, secure your API at every layer, optimize performance, and scale with federation. You'll also deploy GraphQL to Cloudflare Workers, Vercel, or Deno Deploy and integrate it with modern frontend apps like React and Next.js. The capstone project brings everything together as you build and deploy a production-grade, observable, federated GraphQL platform-complete with edge routing, caching, and CI/CD validation. What You'll Learn- GraphQL fundamentals using SDL, queries, mutations, and subscriptions - Schema design with objects, interfaces, enums, unions, and domain boundaries - End-to-end type safety using GraphQL Code Generator and modern TypeScript - High-performance resolvers, batching, caching, and N+1 elimination - Security best practices: JWT/OAuth, RBAC, field-level rules, complexity limits, and allow-lists - Apollo Federation 2 for scalable, multi-service architectures - Observability with OpenTelemetry, metrics, logs, and tracing - Edge/serverless deployment on Cloudflare Workers, Vercel, and Deno - Migration strategies from REST to GraphQL - Production readiness through load testing, monitoring, and safe deploys Who This Book Is For- Beginners who want a modern, clean introduction to GraphQL - Intermediate developers leveling up to professional APIs - Backend and full-stack TypeScript engineers - Teams adopting federation, edge deployment, or schema governance - Anyone building scalable, secure, and future-ready APIs Modern, practical, and engineered for real production use-this is the GraphQL book for 2025 and beyond.
