What is Cruddl? ArangoDB based GraphQL servers. It is a library that creates an executable GraphQL schema from a model definition and provides queries and mutations to access a database. Currently, it supports the multi-model database ArangoDB. The concept being inspired by existing projects like prisma and join-monster, it exploits the expressiveness of the Arango Query Language (AQL) to generate one tailored query for each GraphQL request.
