Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

React Server Components Example with Next.js
Another interesting point is that executing fetches on the server can allow developers to more easily leverage caching. Next.js already handles caching out-of-the-box and Iām curious to see if the wider adoption of RSC reduces the need to combine React with solutions like Apollo Server and Apollo Client. While there are other benefits to these tools, RSC could provide similar caching behavior without the need to invest in a GraphQL solution.

Building Scalable GraphQL Microservices With Node.js and Docker: A Comprehensive Guide
There are several GraphQL server implementations, however, for this tutorial, we'll utilize Apollo GraphQL's Apollo Server, a lightweight and flexible JavaScript server that makes it easy to build GraphQL APIs.

Launch HN: Serra (YC S23) ā Open-source, Python-based dbt alternative
As I mentioned, their main GraphQL server package is[1], so that's where the confusion came from. Thanks.

Who moved my error codes? Adding error types to your GoLang GraphQL Server
While working on this blog post, I learned that Apollo Server, the most popular GraphQL server for typescript, uses a similar method for adding error codes to GraphQL. It even lets you add custom errors. Hopefully, someday other GraphQL server projects will follow them. Until then, weāve got a strong indication we took the right approach.

Zero to Serverless Car Insurance - Part 2
GraphQL is just a schema, there are many different implementations of a GraphQL server, AppSync being one of them. I mentioned Apollo server in this series as well.

How we migrated to Apollo Server 4
After some head-scratching, I opened an issue on Apollo Serverās GitHub repository. There, Apollo Server contributor @āglasser shared a helpful suggestion: why not invoke our AuthPlugin from Apollo Serverās context function? Throwing from context would ensure we can control the HTTP status response without having to introduce more methods and error checks to our AuthPlugin (like unexpectedErrorProcessingRequest). With that suggestion in mind, we rewrote our AuthPlugin as follows:
-
why would a developer choose nodejs over c#.net for backend?
Apollo as a middleware in Express.js, actually.

Lastly, instead of writing our API core ourselves, we'll be using the star of this episodeā---āApollo Server (a.k.a. GraphQL server). It has detailed documentation available here.

three ways to deploy a serverless graphQL API
graphql-yoga is built on other packages that provide functionality required for building a GraphQL server such as web server frameworks like express and apollo-server, GraphQL subscriptions with graphql-subscriptions and subscriptions-transport-ws, GraphQL engine & schema helpers including graphql.js and graphql-tools, and an interactive GraphQL IDE with graphql-playground.

Subscriptions and Live Queries - Real Time with GraphQL
The most common used (but not best maintained) library for such a PubSub engine in the GraphQL context is graphql-subscriptions. There are also adapters available for more distributed systems (where all GraphQL API replicas must be notified about the event) e.g. over Redis.

GraphQL over WebSockets
During that work, we created and merged the reference implementation into graphql-js and created two supporting libraries: graphql-subscriptions and subscriptions-transport-ws. Here is a talk with deep dive into all the details.

Using useSWR as an alternative to Subscriptions?
The Prisma / GraphQL-Yoga comes with Subscriptions, and this was the first thing I came across when my client asked for realtime updates. The implementation was quite difficult - took me a long time. Eventually, it was working locally, and in staging. However, when it came to the production environment, for some reason it just didn't work! This unfortunately ended up with a user losing an auction, which ultimately went to court etc.

Build a chat app with GraphQL Subscriptions & TypeScript: Part 2
First, let's try to understand what PubSub is exactly. Apollo Server uses a publish-subscribe (pub/sub) model to track events that update subscriptions. The graphql-subscriptions library included in all apollo-server packages (including middleware integrations) provides a PubSub class as a basic in-memory event bus.

GraphQL the Simple Way, or: Don't Use Apollo
To add this, I can just expand the basic setup above. To do so, I do actually use a couple of small Apollo modules! Most can be picked and configured independently. For this case, graphql-subscriptions provides a little bit of pubsub logic that works within resolvers, and subscriptions-transport-ws integrates that into Express to handle the websockets themselves. Super helpful
