Author here. In playing with the other available GraphQL API frameworks earlier this year, I realized that I needed something with more flexibility than schema-first GraphQL APIs like Prisma, but I also loved the consistency of the APIs that they produced. So I decided to build Warthog: a code-first GraphQL API framework built with TypeScript that uses decorators to autogenerate both the GraphQL schema as well as the database schema - you just supply the resolvers and data models. Under the hood it uses TypeGraphQL for the GraphQL schema generation, TypeORM for the DB migrations and sprinkles in a bunch of magic for the autogenerated filters, pagination and sorting. Also, since it's using TypeORM and TypeGraphQL under the hood, you can always fall back on using their decorators if you need to do something custom. Let me know what you think!
