Is GraphQL dead? (GraphQL Conf 2025 talk, YouTube) [video]

Hey folks! This talk is about GraphQL in a world of fullstack, rich clients and about Isograph. The question it asks is: does GraphQL need to exist? Can we get its benefits without a GraphQL schema, without a GraphQL server, and without sending GraphQL over the wire?

It's my opinion that Isograph gives us the benefit of GraphQL, without many of its limitations. Which is to say, if you start from scratch, you can avoid mistakes.

This describes a future iteration of Isograph. Currently, much of what's described here is on the roadmap. But it's coming!
