About The Graph:

The Graph serves as the comprehensive indexing and query layer of web3, with the self-service experience for developers unveiled in July 2021. Developers build and deploy open APIs, known as subgraphs, that applications can query via GraphQL on multiple networks. The Graph supports data indexing from various networks, including Ethereum, NEAR, Arbitrium, Optimism, and others, with more networks forthcoming. With thousands of subgraphs deployed, developers have created APIs for applications like Uniswap, Synthetix, and more. Developers can utilize subgraphs to efficiently present data in UIs and make them available for others to access.

Join the The Graph community by engaging in technical discussions on Discord, Telegram, and social media platforms. Aided by organizations like Edge & Node, StreamingFast, Messari, Semiotic, and The Guild, The Graph Foundation governs The Graph Network to continuously drive innovation in the web3 space.
