Checkout postgraphile at https://www.graphile.org/ , they have a whole ecosystem build around postgresql, typescript, graphql.
It's highly customisable, works directly with postgresql row levels security and the performance is quite good. It has a custom GraphiQL gui to work on queries/mutations.
To really see how it all works together checkout the starter project: https://github.com/graphile/starter it has migrations, job queue, graphql-codegen etc.
