About:
GraphiQL App is a standalone desktop application that provides a feature-rich interface for querying GraphQL endpoints. It wraps the standard GraphiQL interface within an Electron shell, enabling local installation and offline capabilities. This tool simplifies the development and testing of GraphQL APIs by offering a dedicated environment separate from web browsers.
Key Features:
  • Cross-platform desktop interface
  • Introspection and schema exploration
  • Query history and variable management
  • Lightweight Electron wrapper
Use Cases:
  • Developing and debugging GraphQL queries locally
  • Testing API endpoints without browser extensions
  • Inspecting GraphQL schema definitions
Alternatives:
  • Insomnia – More comprehensive API client supporting REST and GraphQL, but heavier resource usage.
  • Altair GraphQL Client – Modern alternative with more built-in features like pre-request scripts and subscriptions.
