I recently stumbled upon Apollo at Expo: GraphQL Helps Small Teams Move Fast - Adam Miskiewicz talk and was intrigued by GraphQL & Apollo client.
So I decided to learn both of those technologies through building a social app using react native with a full-fledged, production ready backend.
Recently my friend Michael Leung (@MiLeung) created freEdu.tech which is a website for Free Tech Education. Find the source code here: https://github.com/MiLeung/freEDU.tech
Taking inspiration from the website, I decided to created the corresponding mobile app for it. This seemed like the perfect use case for my learning experiment so I decided to see how far I could take it.
- React Native
- Expo
- React Navigation
