[GraphQL] is a data query language developed by [Facebook] and intended to serve mobile and web application frontends.

*[Juniper]* makes it possible to write [GraphQL] servers in [Rust] that are type-safe and blazingly fast. We also try to make declaring and resolving [GraphQL] schemas as convenient as [Rust] will allow.

[Juniper] doesn't include a web server - instead it provides building blocks to make integration with existing servers straightforward, including embedded [GraphiQL] and/or [GraphQL Playground] for easy debugging.




## Getting Started

The best place to get started is [Juniper Book], which contains guides with plenty of examples, covering all features of [Juniper].

To get started quickly and get a feel for Juniper, check out the ["Quickstart" section][1].

For specific information about macros, types and the [Juniper] API, the [API docs][Juniper] is the best place to look.




## Features

[Juniper] supports the full [GraphQL] query language according to [October 2021 GraphQL specification](https://spec.graphql.org/October2021), including interfaces, unions, schema introspection, and validations. It does not, however, support the schema language.

As an exception to other [GraphQL] libraries for other languages, [Juniper] builds non-`null` types by default. A field of type `Vec<Episode>` will be converted into `[Episode!]!`. The corresponding Rust type for e.g. `[Episode]` would be `Option<Vec<Option<Episode>>>`.




## Integrations


### Types

[Juniper] provides out-of-the-box integration for some very common [Rust] crates to make building schemas a breeze. The types from these crates will be usable in your schemas automatically after enabling the correspondent self-titled [Cargo feature]:
- [`bigdecimal`]
- [`bson`]
- [`chrono`], [`chrono-tz`]
- [`rust_decimal`]
- [`time`]
- [`url`]
- [`uuid`]


### Web server frameworks

- [`actix-web`] [`juniper_actix`] crate
- [`axum`] [`juniper_axum`] crate
- [`hyper`] [`juniper_hyper`] crate
- [`rocket`] [`juniper_rocket`] crate
- [`warp`] [`juniper_warp`] crate




## API stability

[Juniper] has not reached 1.0 yet, thus some API instability should be expected.
