Are there any links to background on the move to Envelop+Helix and the why of moving away from Apollo?
Glad you asked! We actually have two posts about the migration:
- Using GraphQL Envelop+Helix in Redwood v0.35+ which goes into the collaboration with the Guild and technical underpinnings of Envelop+Helix
- Migrate your Redwood GraphQL API with GraphQL-Helix and Envelop which includes quotes from the creators of Helix and Envelop about their motivation for creating the projects in the first place
It’s pretty deep in the weeds stuff for anyone not steeped in the world of GraphQL servers and deployment of serverless APIs, but we think it’s a really exciting combination and potentially transformative for the entire framework.
