GraphQL Wroclaw #7

Exciting news! GraphQL Wroclaw meetup #7 goes hybrid.

It means that on this occasion we would like to invite you to meet our community live at Mirumee HQ in Wroclaw. How cool is that?!

Don’t worry if you can’t join us in person, all presentations will be streamed live on YT.

This is a completely new format for us and possibly the first try at organizing a meetup like this anywhere. But we feel that this initiative is worth taking.

Of course, we’ll be sure to take care of all the necessary safety protocols and standards to provide you a comfortable and hygienic/healthy space to meet. So, if you’d like to join us, we’ll be very happy to host you in our favorite place.

This may be the last chance to meet up before winter. A platform to exchange our latest experiences and fire up some inspiring conversations around the hottest topics. We really have missed this!

You’ll have the opportunity to listen to three experienced speakers and then verify your conclusions during live Q&A sessions.

At this moment entrance is free and unlimited, but we need to remain aware of any upcoming restrictions. We’ll keep you updated!

Help us create a new dimension of events that gives us unlimited possibilities to expand our community and grow together with it!

Let’s meet, talk, joke, drink some good craft, learn from one another, and simply enjoy each other’s presence.

Who’s in?

Talk #1

The Data Layer Revisited

GraphQL exposes a well-structured interface to explore the data that is meaningful for our applications and users. One of the less explored benefits of this pattern is using GraphQL as the unifying layer for all our data sources. Join us to learn the ins and outs of the modern data layer.
