With @barlow_vo on board as our documentation lead, things are only going to get better! 🎉
I can't describe how complete @apollographql docs are. They thought of everything, details, use cases, metrics, uncommon cases, deploy. We need more docs like that in the world. #GraphQL

Recently at Knotel we moved our #GraphQL server to use the new @apollographql feature called Federation. vq.io/2yokIkE At its core Federation stitches together many microservices into a single GraphQL graph exposed to clients @KnotelEngineer @UriGoldshtein 1/
