React Summit 2023

Jerel Miller

Get ready for an annual deep dive into the latest trends in React and Web development. Learn from engineers behind the framework ecosystem and early adopters at the main React Conference in the UK.The concept of the event is both about covering all you need to catch up on in the React ecosystem, combined with deep technical exploration of the latest architectural trends, new feature adoption, and efficient ways to solve complex problems.Engage in discussion rooms, hallway track with experts, hands-on practical workshops, and tens of insightful talks. Engineers of any level are welcome but be prepared for hardcore.

In this talk, we'll examine how GraphQL fits into the React Server Component paradigm and how to use Apollo Client, a client-side data store, in a world of streaming SSR. Starting with a demo built with only Server Components with GraphQL, and juxtaposing it with an app using only Client Components, we'll show why a framework with a client-side data store that can also interact with RSC is the best of both worlds alongside good practices when combining it with GraphQL.

GraphQL in the World of React Server Components

For many app developers, GraphQL is instrumental in building great user experiences. With the introduction of React Suspense, developers have an ergonomic way to orchestrate loading states to improve upon the status quo.  In this talk, the Apollo Client team will show you how we built a non-trivial application using Apollo Client’s new Suspense features, GraphQL features like the @defer directive, and how to combine them to build great user experiences in your own apps.

How to Use Suspense and GraphQL with Apollo to Build Great User Experiences

With fetching libraries like TanStack Query, swr, or RTK Query becoming more widespread, some of the immediate “selling points” of GraphQL clients seem to be less unique - so it might be a good idea to take a step back and ask the question “is this even still relevant?”. And to already take the answer away - it is “yes”. The unique selling points of GraphQL go far beyond having a smooth data fetching experience by solving many inter-team and architectural problems. While it might not always be immediately evident as a benefit for us as Frontend Developers,  GraphQL gives us a lot of freedom and makes us less dependent on backend teams implementing a Backend-for-the-frontend for us. Also, while data-fetching libraries have made it a lot easier to work with REST nowadays, GraphQL still has properties that are just not present in traditional REST APIs, and on top of that GraphQL has kept evolving. New directives like @live or @defer enable developers to create a fantastic user experience with very little work - especially when combined with React’s new suspense features.
