Developer uses Claude Code to migrate 40 REST endpoints to GraphQL

A developer successfully migrated 40 REST endpoints to GraphQL in 12 days by leveraging Claude Code as an automation tool. The primary challenge was ensuring byte-for-byte data consistency between the old and new APIs, which was addressed by creating a differential testing harness before schema development. This approach allowed for the identification and deletion of unused endpoints, and ensured bug-for-bug compatibility with the existing system. AI

    <h2> TL;DR </h2> <p>I moved 40 REST endpoints to GraphQL in 12 days using Claude Code as the grunt-work engine, and the hard part was never writing resolvers — it was proving the new API returned byte-identical data to the old one. The trick was building a differential test harne…
