GraphQL ecosystem:
It's the perfect time to get immersed into the GraphQL ecosystem. New tools appear and evolve frequently and you might be excited to start using it in your projects. But, where to start? Where to go first? How to get to implement GraphQL for the fist time in a practical way? This talk aims to explain the basics of GraphQL and how to write a simple application that uses it from scratch.

Bio:
Jake is an open source engineer for Apollo, focusing on making the GraphQL ecosystem more accessible through thoughtful developer tooling.

Talk Description:
GraphQL has always promised a development experience like no other through advanced and easy-to-use tooling. But have we reached that point yet? In this talk, Jake will discuss the state of GraphQL tooling, how to get the most out of GraphQL, and what could be improved with how people work on GraphQL projects.

GraphQL Caching At Scale
