Rationale

Ariadne is one of the primary libraries of the Fluid Attacks API.

These are the primary reasons why Fluid Attacks selected it:

• It is open source.
• It is built for GraphQL, the query language of the API.
• It supports asynchronous programming, which is very important for the performance of the API.

Alternatives

Fluid Attacks examines this alternative:

Strawberry

• Strawberry can be a good alternative to Ariadne.
• It is built for GraphQL, the query language of the API.
• It supports asynchronous programming, which is very important for the performance of the API.
• It has a code-first approach. This approach increases type safety, decreases the cognitive complexity for developers, and makes the development experience better.
• A large community maintains it.

Usage

Fluid Attacks uses Ariadne as the core library to declare the Fluid Attacks API.
