Sangria

Sangria is a Scala GraphQL implementation. It is an example of GraphQL server written with Play framework and Sangria. It also serves as a playground, where you can interactively execute GraphQL queries and play with some examples. If you want to use sangria with a react-relay framework, then you also may be interested in sangria-relay. Sangria is a spec-compliant GraphQL implementation, so it works out of the box with Apollo, Relay, GraphiQL and other GraphQL tools and libraries. Since GraphQL has a type system, the server defines a schema that the client can query using the introspection API. This provides the client with a set of possibilities. After the client got this information and decided which parts of the data it needs, it is able to describe its data requirements in form of a GraphQL query. An important aspect of GraphQL is that it’s completely backend agnostic.
