| description.long | 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. | An enterprise-grade solution for building and managing federated supergraphs with schema composition, governance enforcement, breaking-change detection, security controls, and real-time analytics. |
