We will be giving out colored stickers to help you indicate how comfortable you are with in-person contact:

🟡 choose the yellow sticker if you're open to joining the conversation but cautious,

🎙 **[Laurin Quast](https://twitter.com/n1rual)** **(The Guild)** - *"Are you using GraphQL the intended way?"*

GraphQL is a technology whose adoption grows constantly. More and more enterprise-grade companies start investigating and betting on it. Today there are many different tools for building a GraphQL API, whether from scratch or by generating it from an existing database or REST API. You can solve API ownership by federating your schema. It is obvious that GraphQL is here to stay. Interestingly, a lot of the use-cases for GraphQL today differ from its original purpose when first developed by Facebook. Let's have a tour through how the use-cases evolved and whether you are using GraphQL the intended way.

**Laurin Quast** is a developer that started exploring GraphQL, by leading the private and later public API development at a start-up. Realizing that there are still many unsolved problems and challenges within the space, he started contributing to famous JavaScript libraries, such as GraphQL Code Generator and GraphQL Tools. Diving deeper and deeper, the transition into becoming a full-time open-source developer at The Guild was inevitable.

🎙- **[Rikki Schulte](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rikkischulte/) (GraphQL Foundation)** **and [Thomas Heyenbrock](https://twitter.com/heyenbrock) (Stellate)** \- "*The future of GraphQL IDEs"*

Every developer that has ever used GraphQL has written a query in GraphiQL and it’s become one of the most widely used tools in the GraphQL ecosystem. Also, other implementations like the GraphQL Playground have become very popular in recent years and added lots of value in terms of what GraphQL IDEs can do. In 2020, the GraphQL Playground was handed over to the GraphQL Foundation, and the work on combining the best of both worlds started. Let’s explore the brand new design of the upcoming GraphiQL v2 and where we want to take the project in the future!

**Thomas** is working at Stellate (formerly GraphCDN) as a software engineer, working pretty much full-stack from front to back. He originally studied maths, then started doing data science, and got diverted into programming and web development over time. Outside of work, Thomas is a certified skiing instructor.

🎙 **[Paolo Insogna](https://twitter.com/p_insogna)** **(NearForm)** \- "*Do not break GraphQL, extend it!*"

GraphQL is a powerful technology to retrieve and send complex structures from remote locations with a simple and effective syntax. One of its perks is avoiding under-fetching and over-fetching as the client specifically requests the fields it’s interested in.

But what happens if we need to enrich or customize the data set and we can’t modify the upstream GraphQL server? Shall we break the spec?
In this talk, I will show you how to use the resources the GraphQL specification already gives us to solve this issue without having to break the rules.

**Paolo** is a Node.js Core Member, Senior Developer Experience Engineer at NearForm, Full-Stack Expert, and Polyglot Developer. RPG and LARP addicted and nerd on a lot more. From Campobasso, Italy.

See you there! 👋
