Going GraphQL
summary
Claims Go is a better long‑term platform for GraphQL and demonstrates a schema-first code gen workflow using gqlgen (v0.6, sponsored by 99designs). The talk shows SDL files generating Go models and resolver stubs, a one‑line mountable playground included, mutation input types, and resolver examples that call REST gRPC or DB backends. It covers practical problems and solutions: over/under‑fetching eliminated, directives for auth and complexity, and using data loaders to avoid N+1 selects.
