Definitions
A user-defined mechanism for looking up or selecting values such as modules, dependencies, fields, routes, or resources according to application-specific rules. Custom resolvers are common in dependency injection, GraphQL, imports, and config systems.
In plain English: A custom lookup mechanism that decides how something should be found.
Example: "The monorepo used a custom resolver so shared packages could be loaded from local source during development and from published artifacts in CI."
