Description: A Named Type in GraphQL is a type that has a specific name and can be referenced in different parts of a schema. These types are fundamental to the structure of GraphQL, as they allow for a clear and concise definition of the data that can be queried and manipulated. Named Types can be of various kinds, including object types, interfaces, unions, enums, and scalars. Each of these types has its own semantics and is used to represent different aspects of data. For example, an object type can represent an entity like a user or a product, while an enum type can define a limited set of possible values, such as order statuses. The ability to reference these types by name facilitates reuse and organization of the schema, allowing developers to build more robust and maintainable APIs. Additionally, Named Types are essential for type validation in queries, helping to ensure that the requested and returned data meets the expectations defined in the schema.
