I've only ever found use in GraphQL when it is paired with other technology. Namely Relay (and to some degree Apollo although I'm not as deeply familiar with it as I am with Relay).

Being able to co-locate data queries with components in React has been a huge game changer for me when writing reasonably complex frontend apps. However, GraphQL on its own never struck me as being any more beneficial than Rest.
