About This Video
In Detail
If you’re a developer struggling with GraphQL because of its complexity or simply because it takes too much time, this is going to be the most exciting news for you.
If you get to know that your existing PostgreSQL (and soon MySQL too) can be turned into a powerful GraphQL API in a matter of seconds or build a performant GraphQL backend from start to finish in a couple of hours with very little to no coding-would you be interested?
This course provides you with a solution. This course will talk about “Hasura”, which will help you create your GraphQL backends easier and faster than you ever thought possible without writing a single line of code!
Here, you will look at how to let the CRUD code write itself without you even touching your keyboard. Then you’ll learn how to play with all the different features in Hasura using the “playground” approach. After that, you’ll understand how to easily navigate through the most common errors that can cost you a huge chunk of your time if you don’t know about them. Finally, you’ll use Angular and React apps to enhance Hasura features and deploy the code on GitHub Actions.
By the end of this course, you’ll be able to use every functionality to create your GraphQL backends effortlessly in record time.
Who this book is for
This course is for frontend developers looking for a new, easy, and fast way for GraphQL backend development and backend developers looking for incredibly performing GraphQL endpoints with minimal effort.
