Documentation

Commands

• yarn start starts GraphQL server on http://localhost:4000
• yarn dev starts GraphQL server on http://localhost:4000 and opens GraphQL Playground
• yarn playground opens the GraphQL Playground for the projects from .graphqlconfig.yml
• yarn prisma <subcommand> gives access to local version of Prisma CLI (e.g. yarn prisma deploy)

Note: We recommend that you're using yarn dev during development as it will give you access to the GraphQL API or your server (defined by the application schema) as well as to the Prisma API directly (defined by the Prisma database schema). If you're starting the server with yarn start, you'll only be able to access the API of the application schema.
