pg_graphql and EdgeDB both provide a graph-like query language on top of Postgres. EdgeDB

philosophically (I think) EdgeDB tries to do a more complete job of abstracting over Postgres. It has a custom query language (and GraphQL support via a plugin), and a migration system. Its runs separately from the DB.

In contrast, pg_graphql is more narrowly scoped. It enables you to query your existing Postgres database without caring how your data is structured or having any interactions with migrations. It also runs directly inside the database, so theres no separate process/server to manage.

The EdgeDB folks have a great comparison of GraphQL vs EdgeDB syntax on their site https://www.edgedb.com/docs/graphql/mutations
