• React with GraphQL & Apollo:
• Redux - State Management
• Graph QL is server side, which decouples Server endpoints and client
• GraphQL
• Only one end point will be there 
• Client has to query details it needs and GraphQL will call corresponding service/db and executes a query and returns queried data.
• Its kind of agreement between client and server so, client need not bother about service side changes. it will always return the details queried by the client and in the same format as the query.
• Query - Read, Mutation - Write, Subscription - Push
• cycle: Query -> Resolvers (Functions to calculate how to fetch data) -> Connectors
• Apollo:
• Client side for GraphQL mostly. it replaces the need for Relay.
