Graphweaver is a code-first GraphQL backend that connects multiple data sources behind a single GraphQL API. It focuses on fast bootstrapping with generated CRUD operations while keeping everything fully customizable in TypeScript.

Key Features

  • Connect multiple data sources (SQL databases and external APIs) behind one GraphQL schema
  • Instant CRUD GraphQL API with filtering, sorting, and pagination
  • Cross-source filtering to query and filter across different backends
  • Code generation to introspect supported databases and generate TypeScript resolvers
  • Granular security controls including RBAC plus row-level and column-level permissions
  • Built-in, extensible admin panel for browsing and managing connected data

Use Cases

  • Build a unified GraphQL gateway over multiple databases and SaaS/REST services
  • Rapidly scaffold an internal admin tool for operational data management
  • Add fine-grained authorization to CRUD APIs without losing code-level control

Graphweaver is well-suited for teams that want Hasura-like acceleration while keeping a standard, hackable GraphQL server and UI that can be adapted to production requirements.
