We need to to make a decision to use or not use GraphQL interface. I believe GraphQL out of the box has some limitations compared to using stardog.js, right? Questions: - If we want to build an interactive user experience which one you would suggest? - In the long run? It would be nice to see tutorials for user interfaces built with stardog.js and or against a GraphQL interface of music tutorial. What do you say? Thanks, Radu ---

Hi Radu, `stardog.js` supports both [SPARQL](https://github.com/stardog-union/stardog.js#queryexecuteconn-database-query-accept-params-additionalhandlers) and [GraphQL](https://github.com/stardog-union/stardog.js#graphql) directly—running both from javascript should not be any different from running them via the command line. With respect to interactive interfaces, a lot depends on your use case. In case it helps, I've just pushed some examples of visualizing query results with D3.js as well as vega-lite to an [ObservableHQ notebook](https://observablehq.com/@alex-r-bigelow/stardog-js-in-observable). -Alex ---
