This talk was given at ViennaJS August 2021 - In-person edition! by Michael Ostermann.
In this talk I will show you what happens when you combine the powerful flexibility that GraphQL provides with a lack of experience. As our internal APIs scaled up over time, we suddenly had to manage an explosion of complexity, until we were finally able to learn from our mistakes.
I will give you a framework independent overview on how we used GraphQL, how it became nearly impossible for us to maintain it and how we got back on track.
