The future of GraphQL IDEs

on YouTube ↗32m

" summary

GraphiQL v2 is released as a modular React reference IDE (GraphiQL React package) built from individual context providers, CSS-variable theming (includes a new dark theme), and a simple plugin API that lets extensions render in a left sidebar — demoed with an AST Explorer reading the editor via useEditorContext. It runs as a full React app or a single HTML file via CDN, still uses CodeMirror now but plans to replace it with Monaco for accessibility and performance. Migration docs and repository issues are available.
