#graphql on the mind

Really new to it but it looks really promising sofar! Im trying out @apollographql and its great but it challenges alot of my current understanding of how to do things.. like having a #reactjs comp fetch its own data, when before this belonged in a container or store.

Also recommendations for avoiding bulk fetching of remote data in resolvers, and performing data transformation on the server (sorting & filtering) vs on the client, goes against notions ive already established that are conflicting.

I don’t think “avoiding” is the right word here — I mean, for individual resolvers for uninformed non-array fields, yes. But the whole reason DataLoader was created was to solve this problem. If you have an API that supports bulk fetching, you should probably be using it.
