Starting the server application

First, you need to install the npm dependencies:

~$ npm install

and then start the server application:

~$ node index.js

Express Server is running on http://localhost:4000

Your React + GraphQL application can now access the link http://localhost:4000/graphql by Apollo client 👌

Using GraphiQL tool

Now that you start successfully the server application, you can access directly the link http://localhost:4000/graphiql by browser and use the Graphiql in-browser IDE for exploring GraphQL.
