About Create-GraphQL
Create-GraphQL is a command-line utility designed for developers who want to build production-ready servers using GraphQL.

Install
Getting started with Create-GraphQL is simple! You can install it using either Yarn or NPM. Just follow the commands below:
- With Yarn:
yarn global add create-graphql - With NPM:

Usage
Once installed, you can create a brand new GraphQL project with a single command:

You can also generate specific files, such as Mutation or Type, by using the command below:
create-graphql generate --mutation Story
This generates a StoryAddMutation and StoryEditMutation for your project. For further examples and options, refer to the documentation.
Understanding Create-GraphQL Like an Artist
Think of creating a GraphQL server as if you are an artist preparing to paint a masterpiece. The Create-GraphQL utility serves as your set of tools – brushes, paints, and canvas that allow you to bring your vision to life. Just as an artist can choose different colors, brushes, and techniques to create various styles, you can generate different types and mutations tailored to your project’s needs. Each command you give to Create-GraphQL is like selecting a particular brush or color – it directly influences the final outcome of your server project!
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues while using Create-GraphQL, consider the following tips:
- Ensure you have Node.js installed properly. You can verify this by running
node -vin your terminal. - At times, reinstalling Create-GraphQL can help resolve conflicts. Use
npm uninstall -g create-graphqlbefore reinstalling. - If you run into permission errors, try running your command line with administrative privileges.
