Rewriting Relay's GraphQL Compiler in Rust

Hosted By
Mate K.

Details
ATTENTION: We will be at a new location in Ebisu.
What's a GraphQL compiler, and why would you want to (re)write one in Rust? How does Rust measure up compared to JavaScript (and other alternatives) when it comes to building this kind of software?
Robert Balicki (engineer at Meta on the React Data team) will talk about the decision and process of rewriting Relay's GraphQL Compiler in Rust, before diving into lessons learned. Join us to learn about how Relay is used, and why they decided to rewrite its compiler in Rust.
