From README

Apollo Server 5.x Guide Apollo Server is an open-source GraphQL server that works with any GraphQL schema. Apollo Server 5 is framework-agnostic and runs standalone or integrates with Express, Fastify, and serverless environments. Step 1: For Express integration: Step 2: Define Schema Step 3: Write Resolvers Step 4: Start Server Standalone (Recommended for prototyping): The standalone server is great for prototyping, but for production services, we recommend integrating Apollo Server with a more fully-featured web framework such as Express, Koa, or Fastify. Swapping from the standalone server to a web framework later is straightforward.
