Thanks for the kind words! Our mobile app is built with React Native, website with React, and backend with Node/GraphQL. This is the first time I’ve used GraphQL, and it’s been a dream come true.

Just curious, why GraphQL? I say this as someone who runs a very large Federated Apollo GraphQL architecture at work. Seems like overkill if you have just one client (your app).

  Primarily it was about having a strongly typed and self-documenting API layer. I've tried writing Swagger/OpenAPI specs manually, using frameworks like TSOA or routing-controllers, but never found a solution I liked. We're also working on an interactive web version of the app, as well as a chrome extension, so we'll have more clients soon.
