In this workshop we’ll build a GraphQL Yoga server from scratch, as well as cover how you can use Yoga inside of frontend applications like Next.js. We’ll also look through the plugin ecosystem of Envelop, and what can be added to Yoga to fully customize it to your needs.

Learn how to generate instant GraphQL APIs using a data source connector (GraphQL and non-GraphQL sources), extend and join them both with custom resolvers and deploy to the edge without leaving the code editor.

In this workshop we'll cover the basics of GraphQL, and then use that knowledge to build a backend using SDL. Once we've created our schema, we'll run it locally, deploy to production, and create deployment branches for any changes to our schema. We'll finish the workshop by fetching data from our backend from the frontend, as well as adding authentication to lock down data access!
Mac setup with Node, and NPM (if you wish to follow along locally). Otherwise an account with CodeSandbox would do.
