You mean frontend developer experience. The backend developers I interact with are not too enthusiastic on moving the complexity from the frontend to the backen

  Yeah, and sysadmin would be so much nicer if it weren’t for all the users.

  From my experience the backend also becomes simpler because it standardizes a lot of patterns, especially regarding subscriptions. I have a feeling any backend developer that thinks GraphQL is a significant increase in complexity is just reluctant to learn a new technology.

    It's a shift from supporting some defined, limited set of behavior to supporting a much broader set of possible behavior, to the point that it likely can't practically be fully enumerated. If that's somehow not the case, then I'm not sure what you're using GraphQL for, since that's its whole thing. Of course that's more complex.

  Personally, as a full stack developer I prefer having the complexity on the back end, as I find it easier to manage there.
