Build Scalable and Performant Apps with GraphQL

" summary

Salesforce ships a public GraphQL UI API (query-only in first release, mutations coming later) that uses field selection and resource aggregation to cut network round trips and payloads; a GraphiQL demo shows composing multi-resource queries in one request. A companion mobile SDK with mobile sync handles auth, secure storage, push E2E encryption, and offline sync that already supports hundreds of thousands of records for apps used by millions. Quickstarts use the force droid CLI templates to generate Kotlin/Java/Swift/React Native samples.
