Product Service

This project is centered around a Java-based application that primarily utilizes GraphQL for its API. In addition, RESTful API endpoints have been implemented for comparison purposes and to provide flexibility for different use cases.

Features

• GraphQL API: A powerful and flexible API for querying and mutating data.
• RESTful API: Additional endpoints to support traditional REST operations and to enable comparisons with GraphQL.
