Why Relay is a Must for your GraphQL APIs
summary
Claims that adopting Relay prevents teams from redoing state management by giving each React component its own GraphQL fragment and letting Relay compiler creates one big query that keeps caches consistent. Demo uses Hasura V3 console wired to a Relay-enabled supergraph of data sources, showing a global node ID resolves resource type so a single ID returns a post or a label. Hasura V3 promises full Relay support, multi-region delivery, <1s dev→prod iteration, and a 24h SuperGraph challenge with $1,000 top prize.
