Can you compare GraphQL with REST API?
GraphQL and REST are both protocols a client can use to request information from a server.

The advantages of GraphQL:
- Requires fewer requests than REST, reducing latency
- Saves bandwidth by allowing the client to request only the information it is interested in
- Easier for rapid prototyping, because there is no need to specify all possible requests in advance

The advantages of REST:
- More efficient when the types of requests are known
- Better suited for caching
- More widely used than GraphQL
- Simpler to implement
Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.
