State management in a GraphQL era

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Single-page apps push complexity to the client so the real state problems are fetching caching reading invalidation, not UI wiring. Concrete fixes shown: hand-rolled caches fail at normalization, Redux adds boilerplate, MobX simplifies local cases, and GraphQL with Apollo moves data logic back to the client library — one refactor replaces ~5,000 lines of Redux code with ~1,000 lines using Apollo. demos include a face‑randomizer (worked) and using Apollo cache-persist for offline; pragmatic tip: refetch queries after mutations to save engineering time on fast‑changing MVPs.
