• Starting the Console front-end for Rainbow Platform

  Take GraphQL as an example—REST APIs have a similar challenge, often using something like OpenAPI as the "schema." If you want your code to be the source of truth, you can use something like TypeGraphQL, which generates the GraphQL schema based on decorators in your classes. On the other hand, you can use the reference GraphQL server implementation (graphql-js) with raw Schema Definition Files as your contract—then generate TypeScript types using something like GraphQL Codegen.

• Why, after 6 years, I'm over GraphQL

  All good points! We built Yates (https://github.com/cerebruminc/yates) to solve the authz problem.

  Yates implements Postgres RLS on top of Prisma, which we use as our ORM, and then our GraphQL schema is generated using TypeGraphQL (https://typegraphql.com/). Overall, it's a very nice setup and allows us to be versatile on the client side while still having strong authentication integrity.

• Cerbos + GraphQL: Do not reinvent user permissions
  3 projects | /r/graphql | 5 May 2023

  In this tutorial, we're building a simple application which uses Cerbos inside of a GraphQL server. The server is written in typescript and uses type-graphql to create the schema and resolvers, and TypeDI to handle dependency injection.

• Using modern decorators in TypeScript
  4 projects | dev.to | 2 May 2023

  Using decorators required setting an --experimentalDecorators experimental compiler flag. Several popular TypeScript libraries, such as type-graphql and inversify, rely on this implementation.

• What to use with Apollo Server v4 to achieve type-safety?
  3 projects | /r/graphql | 19 Dec 2022

  Have you tried TypeGraphQL v2 (it's in beta). Some in this thread have reported success with it.

• Apollo Server v4 Breaking Changes. Time to move away?
  4 projects | dev.to | 3 Dec 2022

  When moving away from Apollo Server, and you're looking for a replacement built with JavaScript or TypeScript, let me give you some options. If you want to keep building your GraphQL API schema first, you might want to consider Mercurius (which relies on Fastify) or GraphQL Yoga. If you're going to build your GraphQL API code or resolver first, have a look at TypeGraphQL or Nexus. Alternatively, there are great GraphQL-as-a-Service solutions such as StepZen in case you no longer want to build, maintain and host your own GraphQL API.

• A journey towards a type-safe GraphQL API server
  4 projects | dev.to | 2 Dec 2022

  There are two main approaches to keeping the types of the GraphQL schema and entities in business logic in sync. You can generate the schema based on your TypeScript code (e.g. TypeGraphQL), or you can generate types based on your schema (e.g. GraphQL Code Generator). We opted for the latter since it slotted right into our existing GraphQL server implementation using Apollo Server.
