Using GraphQL and Relay for hybrid Ruby on Rails applications
summary
Migrates a Drupal monolith to a Rails microservice architecture using GraphQL + Rails headless API for a single endpoint and explicit types, React (web and React Native) for a shared UI, and Relay to manage client state. Describes generators and a three‑step gem install, mutation shape and Relay “range add” configs, and the Checkmark app (web, mobile, browser extension) that runs from one codebase with good performance because Relay local store prevents refetches and single React codebase for web mobile extension.
