Powering React-based Dashboards using GraphQL and PostgreSQL
Lukas Fittl at React Rally 2016
GraphQL is in everyone's mind right now - but often times people have a hard time actually setting up a server that can speak it easily, and adapts as your backend changes. In this talk I'll introduce an easy approach how to automatically build GraphQL-based APIs on top of a PostgreSQL database, as well as work through an example of how we can use GraphQL in React effectively. I will demonstrate this using a dashboard I've built based on these technologies, and explain details using code samples from that dashboard application.
