How can I upload a file in the GraphQL PLayground?
I think you need Altair GraphQL Client.
I've been using Altair https://altairgraphql.dev/

GraphQL IDEs: GraphiQL vs Altair
Altair GraphQL Client is another impressive GraphQL IDE. It is open-source and available as a desktop app for all major operating systems, as well as a web extension for Chrome and Firefox.
-
Public Angular Project
However, it's not an Angular app, if you are looking for an app instead of library, you can check Altair app: https://github.com/altair-graphql/altair/tree/master/packages/altair-app or angular sptify, https://github.com/trungk18/angular-spotify/tree/main/libs/web (Uses NX monorepos to maintain the libraries)
-
GraphQL vs REST in .NET Core
Now we can consume created GraphQL API. In the GitHub Repo same functionality has been added with REST approach and GraphQL endpoint. Also widely used Swagger configured for Web API Endpoints as well as AltairUI added for GraphQL endpoint testing. Naturally, AltairUI it not a must for GraphQL, you can also use Swagger, GraphiQL, or GraphQL Playground.
-
GraphQL concepts and querying an endpoint - please help
If you just want to test out queries against your server without having to write them in a script, you could use something like Graphiql (another commenter shared the link for that), Postman, or my personal favorite, Altair.
-
The Stack #3
It all started with GraphiQL demonstrating all these back in the day, but then came Playground (which had recently merged with the GraphiQL team to make things even more interesting), Altair and even desktop/web/editor based clients like Insomnia, Postman, Hoppscotch, VSCode Rest Client and the list goes on all proving that the developer experience with GraphQL can be made really better with just some sugar on top.

JavaScript News and Updates of January 2022
Early this month, the malicious attack on free-to-use libraries, namely color.js and faker.js, created a real uproar in the development community. These tools are used in thousands of projects and their downloading rate from npm is estimated in millions per week. To everyone’s surprise, it turned out to be an inside job. Marak Squires, the creator of these libraries, intentionally committed malicious code to his projects and published updated codebases on GitHub and npm. It is said that this sabotage was caused by unsuccessful attempts of Mr. Squires to monetize his projects. Fortunately, malicious packages were quickly removed and the attacker’s account was suspended. The story sparked a new wave of discussion in the development community on possible steps to make the development and maintenance of open-source projects more sustainable.

Unofficial Faker.js fork positions itself as official successor and assumes name and Open Collective sponsors
For anyone else curious about the allusion to Aaron Swartz, it can be found here and reads (as of posting):

Is there something wrong with OpenSource model?
So people, I've been reading the news regarding some great packages on GitHub, like the Colors and the Faker. I understand that this isn't related entirely with the linux community, but it is something that we should pay attention.

Re: the faker.js debacle: A daily reminder that htmx & hyperscript are dependency free
A developer appears to have purposefully corrupted a pair of open-source libraries on GitHub and software registry npm — “faker.js” and “colors.js” — that thousands of users depend on, rendering any project that contains these libraries useless, as reported by Bleeping Computer.

Open source developer corrupts widely-used libraries, affecting tons of projects
I mean he also maliciously changed all of the links on a faker.js issue to point to conspiracy theories (which I am pretty sure is against Github's TOS): https://github.com/Marak/faker.js/pull/2

The EndGame - Fakerjs
About Four (4) Days Ago, the Author of Fakerjs a popular JavaScript library with more than 2 million weekly Download from NPM Deleted the repository and replaced it with one that only has the modified ReadMe "What really happened with Aaron Swartz?" and no content, and pushed an empty package to npm as the latest version (6.6.6).
- Marak, creator of faker.js who recently deleted the project due to lack of funding and abuse of open source projects/developers pushed some strange Anti American update which has an infinite loop
- Marak adds infinite loop test to popular colors.js
-
Marak’s GitHub account suspended after he deleted FakerJS
The repo is up though: https://github.com/marak/Faker.js/
