Take Control Of Your APIs With GraphQL
summary
Shows GraphQL replacing REST with concrete steps: adds the apollo android client, fetches an introspection into schema.json, generates Kotlin/Java query classes, and maps fragments to app models via extension functions. Describes migrating incrementally using repository interfaces, running an A/B test on the conversations page at OkCupid, and reports no regressions in load or usage. Includes options for callbacks, RxJava, and coroutines and notes the IntelliJ JS GraphQL plugin for schema-aware editing.
