Hi everyone 👋 . If you're curious about GraphQL, @bod and I are doing an intro workshop to working with GraphQL in Kotlin tomorrow 9am PT. We'll cover the basics of GraphQL and build a small Android app using a GraphQL endpoint.

GraphQL client queries are easy - that's the whole point of it. I wish someone would do a workshop on how to implement the server in idiomatic serverside kotlin instead.

But hey, some GraphQL is still better than no GraphQL! 😀

[mbonnin]

I've written some Kotlin servers with https://github.com/ExpediaGroup/graphql-kotlin. It works well and is code first. Some integration tests of the Apollo client are using it actually 🙂.

May the next workshop for graphQL cover Multiplatform as well. I am talking common code/js/android/jvm/native

[mbonnin]

Actually most of the code we'll write during the workshop will be multiplatform. It's using an Android app for convenience but the same would work on iOS/js

I strongly recommend

from @John O'Reilly for a multiplatform GraphQL overview

@Big Chungus https://netflix.github.io/dgs/ for writing GraphQL servers worked great for me so far.
