Slash GraphQL Provides /graphql Backend for Your App

Please see the following topics:

- The [QuickStart](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/slash-quick-start) will help you get started with a Slash GraphQL Schema, starting with a multi tenant todo app
- [Administering your Backend](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/admin/overview) covers topics such as how to programatically set your schema, and import or export your data
  - [Authentication](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/admin/authentication) will guide you in creating a API token. Since all admin APIs require an auth token, this is a good place to start.
  - [Schema](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/admin/schema) describes how to programatically query and update your GraphQL schema.
  - [Import and Exporting Data](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/admin/import-export) is a guide for exporting your data from a Slash GraphQL backend, and how to import it into another cluster
  - [Dropping Data](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/admin/drop-data) will guide you through dropping all data from your Slash GraphQL backend.

- [Advanced Queries With GraphQL+-](https://dgraph.io/docs/slash-graphql/advanced-queries) speaks about how to interact with your database via the gRPC endpoint.
