Shapes

It's possible to fetch an object and its links as a nested structure. This is done by using nested shapes. For example, to fetch a user and everyone whom that user follows try:

Input

SELECT User {
    name,
    email,
    follows: {
        name,
        email
    }
} FILTER .email = 'alice@tutorial.com';

SELECT User {
    name,
    email,
    follows: {
        name,
        email
    }
} FILTER .email = 'alice@tutorial.com';

    uri,
    hashtags,
}
FILTER .hashtags IN {'kittens', 'puppies'};

SELECT Photo {
    author: {
        name,
