<p>This page will give you a short introduction to the concepts in <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper">Juniper</a>.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://docs.rs/juniper">Juniper</a> follows a <a href="https://www.apollographql.com/blog/backend/architecture/schema-first-vs-code-only-graphql#code-only">code-first</a> approach to define a <a href="https://graphql.org">GraphQL</a> schema.</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>TIP</strong>: For a <a href="https://www.apollographql.com/blog/backend/architecture/schema-first-vs-code-only-graphql#schema-first">schema-first</a> approach, consider using a <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper-from-schema"><code>juniper-from-schema</code></a> crate for generating a <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper"><code>juniper</code></a>-based code from a <a href="https://graphql.org/learn/schema">schema</a> file.</p>
</blockquote>
<h2 id="installation"><a class="header" href="#installation">Installation</a></h2>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[dependencies]
juniper = "0.16.1"
</code></pre>
<h2 id="schema"><a class="header" href="#schema">Schema</a></h2>
<p>Exposing simple enums and structs as <a href="https://graphql.org">GraphQL</a> types is just a matter of adding a custom <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/reference/attributes/derive.html#derive">derive attribute</a> to them. <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper">Juniper</a> includes support for basic <a href="https://www.rust-lang.org">Rust</a> types that naturally map to <a href="https://graphql.org">GraphQL</a> features, such as <code>Option&lt;T&gt;</code>, <code>Vec&lt;T&gt;</code>, <code>Box&lt;T&gt;</code>, <code>Arc&lt;T&gt;</code>, <code>String</code>, <code>f64</code>, <code>i32</code>, references, slices and arrays.</p>
<p>For more advanced mappings, <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper">Juniper</a> provides multiple macros to map your <a href="https://www.rust-lang.org">Rust</a> types to a <a href="https://graphql.org/learn/schema">GraphQL schema</a>. The most important one is the <a href="https://docs.rs/juniper/0.16.1/juniper/macro.graphql_object.html"><code>#[graphql_object]</code> attribute</a> that is used for declaring a <a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Objects">GraphQL object</a> with resolvers (typically used for declaring <a href="https://spec.graphql.org/October2021#sec-Root-Operation-Types"><code>Query</code> and <code>Mutation</code> roots</a>).</p>

<p>Now we have a very simple but functional schema for a <a href="https://graphql.org">GraphQL</a> server!</p>

<h2 id="execution"><a class="header" href="#execution">Execution</a></h2>
<p><a href="https://docs.rs/juniper">Juniper</a> is a library that can be used in many contexts: it doesn't require a server, nor it has a dependency on a particular transport or serialization format. You can invoke the <code>juniper::execute()</code> directly to get a result for a <a href="https://graphql.org">GraphQL</a> query:</p>
