GraphQLConf – is the official conference produced by the GraphQL Foundation that brings together the global community of GraphQL developers, leaders and innovators to further the education, adoption and advancement of GraphQL implementations in the industry. In the 8 years of GraphQL being around, we have seen adoption across some of the largest organizations globally with homegrown implementations, open source tooling and several vendor solutions that have enabled the ease of adoption, implementation and management of GraphQL. In the 3 days of workshops, keynotes and talks from the ecosystems, GraphQLConf aims to be the forum where we bring the community together to share and learn about what’s working and where we need to innovate & collaborate to help business succeed with GraphQL.
