Why Do we Need Pagination?
This is where we return to the concept of pagination mentioned in the previous chapter. Imagine we have a list of repositories in our GitHub organization, but we only want to retrieve a few of them to display on our UI.

In GraphQL, you can request paginated data by providing arguments to a list field, such as an argument that specifies how many items you are expecting from the list.
