  Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We’ve already laid the foundation for your next big idea — freeing you to create without sweating the small things.

  

In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a GraphQL API with Laravel, a popular PHP web framework. We will be creating a simple student model, seeding the database with dummy data, setting up a database connection, and creating a GraphQL server by defining our API's schema, queries, and mutations. We’ll also learn how to make requests to our API (test our endpoints) using a tool like Insomnia or Postman. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a working GraphQL API that you can continue to expand and improve.
