Thanks for the explanation! That makes sense to consider the database structure when choosing between REST and GraphQL. I hadn't thought about purpose-driven design before - focusing on the use case sounds key to avoiding bloated APIs. Do you have any favorite resources on designing for specific use cases?

Also, are there any tools that can help with documenting or visualizing different API design options?
