Getting Started With GRANDstack
Build full stack graph applications with ease.
Installation
The simplest way to create a GRANDstack application is to use the GRANDstack starter by running this command
npx create-grandstack-app myapp
where myapp is the name of the application to be created. You can also use the GraphQL Architect low-code tool with Neo4j Desktop to create GraphQL APIs backed by Neo4j without writing any code.
What is GRANDstack?
GRANDstack is a combination of technologies that work together to enable developers to build data intensive full stack applications. The components of GRANDstack are:
- GraphQL - A new paradigm for building APIs, GraphQL is a way of describing data and enabling clients to query it.
- React - A JavaScript library for building component based reusable user interfaces.
- Apollo - A suite of tools that work together to create great GraphQL workflows.
- Neo4j Database - The native graph database that allows you to model, store, and query your data the same way you think about it: as a graph.
