# Superalgos Team GraphQL API Server

This is the Superalgos Team Module server-side GraphQL API server. We use Webpack 4 + Docker to develop locally, then build to a distribution bundle that can then be uploaded via FTP, git or used with a continuous integration workflow.

This modules client-side frontend is in the [client directory](../client#README).

## Getting Started

Run
```
		npm install
```
then
```
		npm run dev
```

## Overview
The Superalgos/TeamModule API is a GraphQL server that serves the necessary queries and mutations for Superalgos teams to browser clients and the Superalgos platform.

### Main Libraries

- [*Prisma*](https://www.prisma.io/): GraphQL ORM for Postgres.
- [*Graphql*](https://graphql.org/): GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries.
- [*Apollo Server*](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/): Apollo Server is the best way to quickly build a production-ready, self-documenting API for GraphQL clients, using data from any source.
- [*Docker*](https://www.docker.com/what-docker)
