I was a big fan and advocate of GraphQL's `@defer` and `@stream` directives. I've added support for TypeScript Operations to WunderGraph, including support for Subscriptions through Async Generators.
Start building your data strategy team and architecture as soon as you can. A one-person data team can make a massive difference to your success as you grow.
GraphQL can add some overhead to your API requests, as each request needs to be parsed and validated before it can be executed. Nullable types are a common issue when working with GraphQL for C# developers. You can use nullable types in your GraphQL schema to indicate that a field can be null.
The library `http-proxy-middleware is a great tool to use when you want to proxy requests to an API. It only takes a couple of lines of code to set up and use, and it's very flexible. When you use this client in your React application to send requests to a GraphQL API, React will execute the request on the client side.
We have reached a point where we can teach machines to learn, and generate text and images based on what they learn. With the advent of Large Language Models (LLMs), we can even use AI to aid human accessibility.
Using data loaders is the best approach for optimizing a GraphQL server. Queries and mutations can be handled more easily, and subscriptions require some additional work. Each HTTP request requires a separate set of data loader instances.
React/Next.js is a way of turning some notion of ‘state’ into DOM, with a focus on composability — using smaller things to build bigger things. The most scalable UI in the world would be nothing without data to display. Here, then, is the other half: working with APIs, databases, and microservices.
A survey by Accenture found that 47% of online shoppers would actually consider paying more - if they were provided with an eCommerce experience that exceeded expectations.
The problem of generating helpful documentation and help pages for Web APIs is solved with swagger. Now.Net project is by default enabled with Swagger, as shown on the localhost URL. The problem is to generate helpful documentation for Web.Net Web API pages. Swagger.Net allows you to ask for what you want in a single query, save bandwidth, and reduce requests. The following steps are followed by the NSwag tool and a GraphQL wrapper for GraphQL.
GraphQL is probably the best language to "Query" pre-defined object trees. It's not really a Graph Database Query Language, like Cypher, but we still love it. The language is just too limited to be used as a configuration language. GraphQL, by default, has no support for imports. Directives are great when used with GraphQL Operations, but quickly turn a GraphQL Schema into a mess when used for configuration.
