In this video tutorial series, Chris Biscardi guides through the process of building a JAMStack to-do app, built with Netlify, Gatsby, GraphQL, and FaunaDB. The guide uses a composition of modern serverless tools to build a GraphQL API deployed to Netlify in a modular way. Follow along to see how GraphQL combined with the JAMStack allows for few operational overhead while keeping future upgrade paths open.
