Frontend for Sci-map.org.

Tech stack and design

React, Next.js, Apollo Client, Chakra UI

Known issues

Using avatar triggers a useless request all the time -> chakra-ui/chakra-ui#149 Do not use local storage (next.js...) Codegen: use same name for the export as the graphql query/mutation name -> c.f. ResourcePage (dotansimha/graphql-code-generator#3244) Using @react-icons/all-files as parcel seems to have issues with tree shaking it properly react-sortable-tree needs a patch to work with React 17. (frontend-collective/react-sortable-tree#821)

Nesting fragments too deeply breaks apollo client, some subfields of data are empty object
