Build a web app with GraphQL and React

Introduction

In this article, we will be build a react app that will be consuming data from GraphQL as opposed to the older RESTful API

We will be doing it with a cool react boilerplate, Rekit.

Why GraphQL?

GraphQL is a query language for APIs that offers the advantages of being self-documenting where you choose to request only what you need as opposed to Restful API which can great very robust. GraphQL makes it easier to evolve APIs over time, and enables powerful developer tools.
