I still enjoy using GraphQL, because it has allowed my teams to move measurably faster when developing APIs over the last half-decade. Some organizations seem fairly allergic to full stack development, but it has broken that barrier in ways I hadn’t witnessed before at my workplace.
However, lately I’ve been thinking that with the advent of React Server Components we will see a migration away from GraphQL-focused Frontend applications, and instead move toward other solutions. Such as ones based purely on exposing Postgres databases (e.g. supabase & postgREST) and type safe APIs (e.g. tRPC).
