Yes!!! So excited for this!
Reignited my passion for GraphQL, thank you!
Such clear instructions -- great tutorial! Thank you for taking the time to make this
Perfect timing, started learning graphql few days ago along with appsync, great video
Very well done Ali, thank you for putting this together. I learned a ton from you.
Thank you for your work and this easy to understand video. Much appreciated! Keep up the good work.
I was just thinking about watching something on graphQL so this is super timely! Thank you so much!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Ali, you have an incredible easy and clear way to explain such concepts. Thank you for taking the time. I'm subscribed!
Thank you so much! Glad to hear it!
Awesome tutorial. I wasn't aware of amplify codegen, I ran it today and voila, lots of pre-built graphql queries for my data set that I can now use in React!
This is a great video. Thank you. GraphQL is awesome.
Great video. You make it so easy to follow!👍
The perfect opportunity to dive into GraphQL and figure out what it's all about.
Thanks!!
Just finished it now. A really helpful video, go on 👏❤
Thanks so much for watching!
I’ve been learning graphQL recently and this has helped a lot.. thanks!
Glad it helped! Thanks!
Super helpful!! Useful walkthrough
Simply Brilliant !

you have a nice and clear voice
this is all i needed to grasp the basics lol
Awesome!
Thanks!
wonderfully executed Ali! can't tell that you used to dislike GraphQL at all 😂 and now you pitch it for a living!
HAHA true! Thanks so much!
🥳 Awesome content! Thanks for sharing! 🙏
Feedback: A simple ER diagram for the data model would make it easier to understand the relationships 🤗
Waooo is amazing
Thanks for watching!
Hey Ali, great video again! I’m trying to find out how AppSync generates its input types from the schema we define. It looks like it skips any properties that use interfaces or unions. What do you think?
My VSCode does not have the colour scheme yours has (i have just white text) what extension do you use? (My JS and others are fine)
You're absolutly awesome and so cute. Love your videos. Probably gonna watch this few more times because GraphQL isnt that easy
The schema.graphql syntax and setup now seems to be out of date.
I create my Data Model in Amplify Studio and then pul it into VSCode with Amplify Pull.
Do you have to have a AWS profile? Plus by having one is it going to cost me money?
do you any reference for creating custom graphql query like. getRecipeByName ? please help
Hi Ali, I am getting this error "Not Authorized to access deletepost on type Mutation" while updating/deleting post made by a user account. May I know how to fix it.
now there is Amplify transformer v2 and all your schema code don't work. There is an easy way to migrate?
I am just starting to look at graphql. But, why is this really different from doing a real query with joins on the backend using a stored proc and transporting an object that holds all the data returned? IE... some sort of DTO with all the data ans support data included? I do understand that just grabbing data directly from REST APIs is not good with complicated applications. But, Why is graphql better than just using the stored proc/dto approach?
Have not watched the vid yet and will do that next. But this question has been sticking too me since it seems another api to do what we used to do.
GraphQL can do data-stitching, and an error on one source won’t fail your entire call as with an un-tweaked-with REST-based fetch/merge/respond cycle. Out of the box, GraphQL will take your failed include and throw that path into an errors object. Your client can get back partial data, null-check the errors key, and rip through it to see what happened.
$0.02.
At the 3 quarter mark do not worry, Ali will tell you that what she has built is not the best way, and she provides a better approach, so don't drop off too early.
I thought you couldn’t use Number and instead use Int
PullData would not be a POST
I know that “it works,” and you see it a lot, but you’ll want to terminate your statements with semi-colon.
Why?
If you don’t, the interpreter will take its best guess. It’s usually, very nearly always, correct.
Sometimes it isn’t.
Hey, here's a presentation I always recommend on this: slides.com/evanyou/semicolons. I have been writing JavaScript for eight years and have ran into issues maybe once and that was easily caught by a runtime error.
Hey, you're so smart and pretty. I love your content.
Hey you don’t have to mention looks, just praising the content is enough 😉
