React Apollo Demo Project

Demo project with React-Apollo v3.0 beta and AWS AppSync & Amplify used to create a serverless GraphQL backend.

How to Initialize a Backend

Prerequisite: Install and configure the Amplify CLI.

$ amplify configure

1. Set up Amplify

$ amplify init

2. Install Amplify libraries

$ npm install aws-amplify @aws-amplify/ui-react

3. Setup the frontend (add code in src/index.js)

import Amplify from "aws-amplify";
import awsExports from "./aws-exports";
Amplify.configure(awsExports);

4. Add a GraphQL API and automatically provision a database

$ amplify add api

5. Deploying the API

$ amplify push

6. Check Amplify’s status

$ amplify status
$ amplify console api

The fronted is now ready to be connected to the API using the API key.
