About

GraphQL is a data query and manipulation language for APIs typically used for remote client-server communications.

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a markup language used to create web pages and is the de facto standard for documents displayed in web browsers.

It defines the structure of web content using elements for text, links, images, forms, tables, and embedded media, organizes documents into a hierarchical DOM, and enables hyperlinking between pages, which is a fundamental mechanism of the World Wide Web.
