REST API modeling may be hard, using and supporting large collection of APIs is even harder. GraphQL is a answer for some of these problems. It’s a query language for APIs which provides complete description of your data and gives clients the power to ask for exactly what the need in a single request. In this talk you will learn about GraphQL concepts, differences between GraphQL and WSDL/SOAP/REST/etc and how to add it to your existing stack.

Nice demo of what graphql can do, and about the problems it tackles, by a good speaker. But this talk about GraphQL would fit in a 30-min slot as well. Maybe add some extra content in the future.
