GraphQL Yoga v3: The ultimate GraphQL Server experience

The v3 branch is now merged with our main branch and from now on is a stable version, a lot of major improvements have been shipped to Yoga that we're really excited to share.

GraphQL Yoga v3 comes with the brand new GraphiQL 2.0. The development of GraphiQL 2.0 has been a long ongoing process and we are so happy to finally replace the outdated and old-fashioned GraphiQL IDE with the new fancy and snappy version 2

As of today, GraphQL Yoga is the only GraphQL server in the JavaScript ecosystem that fully satisfies all mandatory and optional sections of the GraphQL over HTTP specification.

Support for Sofa API plugin makes it easy to convert any GraphQL API to REST API and in Yoga v3.

Yoga v3 is also compliant with Apollo Federation spec so you can use it for federated services as your Supergraph and/or as your Subgraph.

The new version of GraphQL Yoga is out! Learn what has improved and what is new!

GraphQL Hive: free SSO (Single Sign On) and migration to ClickHouse

We are excited to announce that due to popular demand we now support connecting a GraphQL Hive Organization to an OAuth Open ID Connect Provider (OIDC) for Single Sign On (SSO) including third-party providers such as Okta, Google, and GitHub.

Offering this feature for free is a big deal for us. We at The Guild believe that Single Sign On is a core security requirement and not a luxury feature that you have to buy in.

Link your GraphQL Hive Organization to your OAuth OIDC provider of choice.

Learn how migrating from Elasticsearch to ClickHouse enabled GraphQL Hive to scale from millions to billions of requests monthly and make everything 100x faster. "ClickHouse helped us to scale from millions to billions of rows monthly without headaches."

GraphQL Code Generator

While the work on the v3 is still ongoing, Codegen got many improvements.

First, the logic around validating GraphQL Schemas and documents has been changed, leading to great performance improvements. Large projects should see codegen execution time improved by 30x.

Finally, while more and more users are getting started with the new client-preset, we decided to improve the documentation related to Fragment Masking to ease the learning path: https://the-guild.dev/graphql/codegen/plugins/presets/preset-client#fragment-masking.

To benefit from better performance and the many bugfixes shipped, update your @graphql-codegen/* packages ๐Ÿ“ฆ
