Everybody loves the video courses on egghead.io for their high-quality. In this short video (~ 5 min) you learn how to deploy a GraphQL API with a single click using graphql-up and explore it in a Playground.
The GraphQL Meetup in San Francisco is the biggest one in the world. Lucky for everyone else they record all the talks ❤️ Here's what happened at the Meetup this week:
Tomer Elmalem: Yelp's Public API (starts at 26:53)
Zane Claes & Geobio Boo: GraphQL at AirBnB (starts at 47:28)
Lee Byron: GraphQL Subscriptions (starts at 1:38:26)

Tools & Open Source
Sashko and Jonas from the Apollo team released version 1.0 of graphql-tools. If you want to get experience in building your own GraphQL server, this toolkit is for you! Learn how you can leverage its functionality and get started quickly on the server-side with this article!
Relay and Apollo are amazing GraphQL clients for prototypes and real-world applications - but in some cases, e.g. when writing simple scripts, these dependencies are an overkill for your lightweight setup. graphql-request is a minimal GraphQL client and gives you everything you need for basic interactions with a GraphQL API.
