| description.long | Stellate is a GraphQL CDN that sits at the edge to cache queries, limit request rates, and provide detailed metrics. It helps developers reduce API latency, minimize origin server load, and protect against malicious queries at scale. | A Node.js framework that allows developers to define GraphQL schemas entirely in TypeScript using class-based type definitions and decorators. It provides automatic validation, authorization support, dependency injection, and eliminates the need to maintain separate schema definitions and type files. |
