Does Graphcool have mobile sync clients? That seems like a big differentiator, and puts AWS AppSync up against other cloud-backed storage vendors like Realm and Couchbase. A sync client backed by GraphQL is just icing on the cake, offering much more flexibility on the backend.
- djmashko2 9y agoOne really neat thing is that the clients are based on the MIT-licensed Apollo Client. So we hope that everyone using GraphQL can easily get these benefits! Check out the code on GitHub: https://github.com/awslabs/aws-mobile-appsync-sdk-js/blob/254930e3de1211c20bbac3efadf571008826bc32/packages/aws-appsync/src/client.js#L9 https://github.com/awslabs/aws-mobile-appsync-sdk-js/blob/25... (Disclaimer: I work on the Apollo team)
- programmarchy 9y agoI was not aware of Apollo... Thanks for the link. Looks great. Just went down a rabbit hole on offline support for Apollo, and looks like people are working on some elegant solutions.
- lamflam 9y agoI've been using https://github.com/Malpaux/apollo-offline https://github.com/Malpaux/apollo-offline for offline support in production for a few months now and it has worked very well. I discovered one issue but the maintainer was very responsive and had my PR merged in and published within 24 hours.
