Are you sure you like Apollo? I ask because your comment says it's wonderful, but then gives a lot of reasons as to why it's not. I don't like Apollo on the client (no issue with it server side). I feel the sharp edges and pitfalls are numerous and it's a lot of boilerplate to get anything off the ground. To be totally fair to Apollo, I'm also not sure the projects I worked on really needed or benefited from GraphQL on the whole, so...
- consolenaut 6y agoI do on the whole yes, its not something I rave about unreservedly the same way I do about styled-components for example, but its still a tool I'd opt for on projects that actually have a need to do GQL stuff. Its like your favorite screwdriver that you somehow always manage to cut yourself on - you're extremely grateful that you have this tool, it lets you tighten screws even in the narrowest spots, you just wish the handle wasn't so damn sharp
