🌍

We have three amazing speakers presenting at this event:

◭ Matheus Cardoso (@cardosodev): "The Case For Lighter GraphQL Client Libraries"

The main GraphQL client libraries are heavy in both binary size and cognitive load. This can be a real issue for websites, size-restrictive build targets like iOS's new App Clips, and SDKs that aim to be lightweight. It also may hinder the adoption from beginners and small projects that could do without the extra complexity.
In this talk, Matheus will present a real life scenario that required him to build an in-house client library, its main motivations, inner workings, and the case for building similar libraries for other platforms and languages.

Repo for that talk: https://github.com/getstream/TinyGraphQL

Matheus is an iOS Engineer and Open Source enthusiast based in Brazil who loves sharing knowledge and elegant solutions through code.

◭ Phil Plückthun (@_philpl), Principal Engineer & Developer Advocate at FormidableLabs, will give us an introduction to urql (https://formidable.com/open-source/urql/)

Phil has extensive experience as a developer working with data, replatforming, and state management. He is a strong proponent of React, pushing for its use in web apps and even co-founding the Reactivate London meetup. He’s also a core contributor for styled-components, the most downloaded CSS-in-JS libraries in 2017. Since joining Formidable, Phil has focused on building React Native developer tools and creating consumer-facing React Native apps for clients.

◭ Aditya Pratap Singh (@aditya_psingh) and Mariano Carballal (@topicus1) will tell us about Scaling GraphQL at Zalando.

In this talk Aditya and Mariano want to share their journey of scaling GraphQL as a Unified-Backend-For-Frontend (UBFF) solution to 200+ developers adoption and 150+ contributors in Zalando in the last 2 years. They also want to share the tools, concepts they used to solve high scale related challenges to the GraphQL service.
