I agree it seems like potentially the same problem, and it manifests in forcing devs to write 'resolvers' which looks like horrible drudge work. So I wonder if there are decent offerings without the impedance mismatch between GraphQL queries and the database (so we don't have to translate them into SQL). I did a very quick look and at least found this: https://dgraph.io/

I'm getting the impression that if nothing else though, I'm probably gonna need to wait a few years for this tech to stabilize more. Which I find very unfortunate, because the standard way of doings things these days feels very unpleasant to me (I hate writing boilerplate more than anything: have an overuse injury, so typing is the worst part of coding)—and the GraphQL queries do seem to make a lot of sense (although forcing clients to have explicit knowledge of schema structure seems a little dangerous...).
