README
GraphiQL.app
A light, Electron-based wrapper around GraphiQL.
Provides a tabbed interface for editing and testing GraphQL queries/mutations with GraphiQL.
macOS installation
If you have Homebrew installed on macOS:
brew install --cask graphiql
Alternately, download the binary from the Releases tab.
Linux installation
The graphiql-app uses the AppImage format for its Linux version. You download it from the Electron app directory (click the "Download for Linux"-button) or from the Releases tab.
Either way, you will get a .AppImage binary. Put it in a safe place and make it executable:
chmod +x graphiql-app-0.7.2-x86_64.AppImage
Then simply execute the app. It will ask whether to add shortcuts to your desktop and menus for easy access in the future.
