Tutorial Fullstack React Native | GraphQL | Apollo Server & Client

Two iPhones side by side: like a post on one, watch the other update on its own. That's the app we build here, a full stack React Native project with a GraphQL backend using Apollo Server and Apollo Client. I write both the server and the client on camera, so you see how the whole pipe fits together.

Best if you know some JavaScript and want to finally connect a mobile app to a real API.

What's inside

• A Node.js Apollo Server built from npm init up
• GraphQL schema design: a Post type with queries and mutations
• Resolvers backed by a simple in-memory dataset for learning
• Apollo Client wired into an Expo app with useQuery and useMutation
• Likes and new posts syncing across devices in real time
• Full project code available free on the platform
