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.

How much overhead does nodejs graphql have?...
In the end like all performance questions you'll have to measure it. Persisted queries, and even more extreme approaches, like a GraphQL JIT (https://github.com/zalando-incubator/graphql-jit) can remove a lot of the overhead.

PSA don't use Datadog agent in a GraphQL project
We faced something similar. To improve GraphQL performance, we use graphql-jit. We turned off all other tracing that datadog turns on by default. Then, we then wrote a custom tracer to connect graphql-jit to dd-trace. Hopefully this same pattern works for you!

GraphQL JIT – GraphQL execution using a JIT compiler
https://github.com/zalando-incubator/graphql-jit#compile-a-q...
so I guess the difference is instead of having totally generic functions that parse the query every time, instead you can call a factory function up front to get a specialised function for a particular query
and V8 JIT can make that faster

Manifest v3 in Firefox: Recap and Next Steps
JS has always been special & excellent because it allows multiphase programming. That one coild just add more code has been unique versus the world of statuc languages, where maybe youcd have some tool to generate stubs for Thrift or gRPC, then compule that in to your program. Which works ok, if and only if you know ahead of time what schemas you might need. Im these cases, you have to give up on stub code & start using more interprtted systems.
The advantages in js have been colossal, often an easy order of magnitude win to compile selectors & queries & other fast inner loop bits into jit compiled code versus having userland interpretters. Some of thd rete engines enjoy this. Just today there's graphql-jit. https://github.com/zalando-incubator/graphql-jit/blob/main/s...
Everything you say is full of doubt & scorn & skepticism. I just cant imagine living im such a world where each system had to know fully well ahead of time each type of data it might want to interact with, might have to have that precompiled & baked in. Thatcs a shitty miserable world that looks like the hell JS plucked us out of, by being a flexible, dynamic language that could load in routines & change it's behavior over time. Screw that dark hell world.

Introducing Envelop - The GraphQL Plugin System
By using useParserCache we make sure to parse every unique operation only once. By using useValidationCache we make sure to validate every unique operation only once. By using useGraphQLJit we replace the default execute function with a just-in-time implementation.

GraphQL - Diving Deep
One thing to understand is that, if you are using Node.js graphql-js would typically be the underlying implementation of all libraries and ultimately everything would get converted to JS/TS objects typically an AST ultimately making all these as abstractions on top of the existing way to define schemas. Note that the implementation can differ a bit in other languages or even within Node.js if you are using other ways of implementation like graphql-jit

Introducing Envelop: The GraphQL Plugin System
Could you provide more context? the GraphQLJit plugin is a lightweight wrapper around graphql-jit. Could you share your previous datadog/graphql setup? Would love to dig in and find a proper solution!

How to define schema once and have server code and client code typed? [Typescript]
It looked a little janky but it actually worked fine. But then I needed file uploads. Something graphql-zeus does not support. So I had to create a small wrapper for the SDK created so that it worked. And then also express-graphql, the server I was using, was deprecated.

Apollo Server v4 Breaking Changes. Time to move away?
This seems like a minor deal unless you're not using Express as your web framework. And an important note here is that Express GraphQL is being deprecated by the GraphQL Foundation. So if you're using Express for a GraphQL API, you should move away from it anyway.

Learn How to Build a GraphQL API in Node.js Using Apollo Server
You might have seen other GraphQL server solutions where the schema is implemented by using a more programmatic approach. Here is an example of how schemas are implemented using the express-graphql library. (link: https://github.com/graphql/express-graphql)

With Cube GraphQL API, you can query data warehouses like BigQuery and dozens of SQL-enabled databases like Postgres using GraphQL
I'm not sure where the "8MB limit" comes from but, indeed, there are issues like this where, in some implementations, the response size is limited to 100KB: https://github.com/graphql/express-graphql/issues/346

What's your experience with Go and GraphQL? Learning Go coming from Node
With Node I used express-graphql as opposed to something like Apollo because it's lighter and less heavy on resources compared to Apollo.

a first look at graphQL helix
Daniel Rearden listed the following reasons pushing him to create Helix, believing that these factors were absent from popular solutions like Apollo Server, express-graphql and Mercurius:

how to deploy a graphQL server with docker and fly
Express GraphQL is a library for building production ready GraphQL HTTP middleware. Despite the emphasis on Express in the repo name, you can create a GraphQL HTTP server with any HTTP web framework that supports connect styled middleware. This includes Connect itself, Express and Restify.

GraphQL - Diving Deep
If you are using Node.js there are a lot of implementations of GraphQL servers with a few being express-graphql, apollo-server, mercurius, graphql-helix and more. And if you are using other languages, you can see a great list here

REST vs. gRPC vs. GraphQL
Not sure about other libraries but it's certainly not the case for express-graphql on node.js. You can tie the graphql endpoint to any method you like. On the site I work on, we have a graphql endpoint that only accepts GET requests in production and is thus cacheable by Cloudfront. In dev and staging we accept all requests so that GraphIQL works.
What are some alternatives?
apollo-server - 🌍 Spec-compliant and production ready JavaScript GraphQL server that lets you develop in a schema-first way. Built for Express, Connect, Hapi, Koa, and more.
