I have been, and remain, very bullish on this project. The graphql community grew fast and the dust is still settling, when it finally does, WG will emerge as a standard. Calmly saving developers massive amounts of time and helping them start from a security minded foundation of best practices. I've worked on a wundergraph/svelte app at a large legal startup and am now beyond excited to champion it's adoption in the web3 space in my new role at Heir labs .

Absolutely thrilled to see the big day has finally come, congrats to all of you at WG for tackling a very difficult problem with diligence and discipline. It's hard to keep your eye on the problem that needs to be solved when working on an ambitious projects and that's exactly what you guys have done, congrats! Also Jens is one the most brilliant, productive, and humble people I've met . I can't wait to watch the community grow and contribute in a new way now that it is open source!

Best of luck too all of you!

Wundergraph is a awesome tool for both backend and frontend engineers. You can connect third party APIs easily on backend and the best part is it generates a type safe client with all queries and mutations which will save front end a ton of time.

Congratulations

Congratulations, Team Wundergraph.

I've been using wundergraph for last couple of months in some hobby projects and also using it on my startup. It boost my team's productivity and API development process easy to easier. In the beginning, I had some doubts and problems on some places, but the community and wundergraph team! They helped me instantly. And overall experience is really impressive.

Wundergraph has become a part of our tech stack, and we wish the Jens and the full team, Best of luck. Will definitely use wundergraph in our future projects too.

I've played around with several graphql autogenerators like Hasura. But there was always something missing.

Wundergraph's amazing approach at creating rest apis from graphql queries was a breath of fresh air and a much needed development pattern. I've come to realise that what has been missing till date was the developer experience Wundergraph has managed to create.

Super excited for the future of this tool.

I absolutely love some of the ideas. In particular leveraging browser capabilities for caching, security benefits of the approach with REST over GraphQL. I do wonder about the performance of Wundergraph server. I know it is not Apollo based (which is good).

It depends on the workload and you should definitely always benchmark yourself. That said, WunderGraph is written in Go and quite fast I'd say: https://wundergraph.com/blog/benchmark_apollo_federation_gat...
