Hi there, it’s Jake from the Appwrite team 👋 Integrating with APIs can be frustrating, and we wanted to change that. With Appwrite, we aim to meet developers where they feel comfortable and give them the flexibility to choose the approach that works best for them. That's why we're excited to introduce GraphQL as a Service, a new way to use Appwrite. Able to be used alongside or instead of the existing REST and Realtime APIs, the new GraphQL API offers full support for authentication, databases, functions, and storage, giving developers the power to build, create, and innovate with ease. We hope that Appwrite not only provides a seamless experience for integrating with APIs, but also has a positive impact on developers. By using our platform, developers may feel a sense of accomplishment and confidence in their abilities. If you're tired of struggling with API integration, we encourage you to give Appwrite a try. We believe it will give you the freedom to focus on what matters most: creating amazing products that make a difference. We have big plans for Appwrite and are always working towards new features with our community of over 700 open-source contributors. We hope you'll join us in the Appwrite community, we’d love to hear what you think! You can learn more about what Appwrite can do for you here: https://appwrite.io/ https://appwrite.io/docs/graphql https://appwrite.io/discord https://github.com/appwrite/appw...

@leetwito This means a lot to us, Lee! Thank you so much :)

@leetwito Honestly, this is our first big step in launching something that firebase can't do at all, albeit experimental. AFAIK, Firebase still has no support for GraphQL. We're not just gonna create Firebase 1-1 again, we want to make Appwrite a uniquely competitive tool in its own right :) (edited, grammar)
