Course Summary
The Relay & GraphQL course is designed to demonstrate how to utilize Relay with GraphQL in the context of React applications.
The course begins with lectures and exercises on making GraphQL requests and understanding Relay concepts like fragments, variables, and callbacks. Next, it explores Relay concepts like slicing, pagination, and data fetching. The course concludes with a deep dive into Relay mutations, including working with optimistic updates and fat queries.
- Productivity Objectives:
- Explain the problems that GraphQL and Relay help to solve
- Write GraphQL queries to retrieve data from a database
- Build out a client UI that specifies its data needs using Relay to connect to your GraphQL-based server
