    Use Cases & Benefits

    • Indexes blockchain data from networks like Ethereum and serves it via a GraphQL API.
    • Enables efficient, decentralized querying of blockchain data with support for multiple chains and IPFS integration.
    • Use for developing and testing subgraphs locally to extract and organize blockchain data during development.
    • Use for building decentralized applications that require real-time, indexed blockchain data accessible through GraphQL.
    • Use for contributing to or customizing a Rust-based blockchain indexing node to support new features or protocols.

    From the README

    The Graph is a decentralized protocol that organizes and distributes blockchain data across the leading Web3 networks. A key component of The Graph's tech stack is Graph Node.

    Before using graph-node, it is highly recommended that you read the official Graph documentation to understand Subgraphs, which are the central mechanism for extracting and organizing blockchain data.

    For subgraph developers, it is highly recommended to use prebuilt Docker images to set up a local graph-node environment. Please read these instructions to learn how to do that.

    This is usually only needed for developers who want to contribute to graph-node.
