What it does

“We’ll be looking at the core fundamentals of GraphQL along with strategies for how to implement it (client-side with Apollo and server-side in Node.js). Additionally, we’ll be exploring different situations in which GraphQL can be used (on mobile with React Native or Java/Swift, and on the web with either React or Vue).” - @jeresig and @lorendsr

The complete guide to GraphQL, from a beginner introduction to advanced client and server topics. A comprehensive 886-page book from John Resig, the creator of jQuery. A comprehensive book from John Resig, the creator of jQuery.

GraphQL is the best way to fetch data for your app, and the GraphQL Guide is the best way to learn how. This is the most comprehensive coverage of modern GraphQL, going from the basics of the Query Language to excruciating detail on Validation and Execution internals that you’ll be thankful for when things go wrong, to the latest and greatest in the ecosystem, like Apollo Federation and Hasura. It normally takes a developer months to get up to speed on putting together all these pieces. The GraphQL Guide teaches it in just a few hours! I really enjoyed reading the book. It is very detailed, and the different git branches are great for picking up at certain sections. I would have loved to…from graphql.guide

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
