Taking your Progressive Web App to the Next Level with GraphQL and AWS AppSyncAmazon Web Services
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are the future of web development and combine the best of web and native apps. In this session you will learn how to build PWAs on AWS then take your app to the next level with AWS AppSync. We will cover how AWS AppSync allows you to query your data using GraphQL and how it handles mutations, subscriptions, offline access, realtime communications, conflict resolution, and efficient data fetching.
Amazon API Gateway brings automated scaling, high availability and reduced operational overhead – but these are only the basics. This session is about all the newer, advanced functionality that can help your development team easily offload some of the tougher challenges in modern applications. I’ll show how AWS customers achieve real-time messaging with serverless WebSockets, modify requests and responses with payload modeling, and build API lifecycle management into their deployments. Some customers are developing entirely serverless applications at scale, and I’ll show how you can do the same.
GraphQL is an open standard that lets you request, change, and subscribe to the exact data you need in a single network request. This makes prototyping and building data-intensive applications as simple as writing a few lines of code. In this session, we’ll introduce the core concepts of GraphQL and put that into practice with real-world implementations using tools such as AWS Lambda and AWS AppSync to deliver real-time collaborative experiences for web and mobile apps. We’ll also show you how to use multiple data sources, manage off-line users’ data, and resolve data conflicts.
