Read Time: 5 minutes In 2015, Shopify began a journey to put mobile first. The biggest undertaking was rebuilding our native Shopify Mobile app and improving the tools and technology to accomplish this. We experimented with GraphQL to build the next generation of APIs that power our mobile apps and give our 600,000+ merchants the same seamless experience when using Shopify. There are currently hundreds Shopify developers across teams and offices contributing to our GraphQL APIs including our two public APIs: Admin and Storefront.
