Reviewer scorecard
“The best GraphQL server for Node.js. Envelop plugin system and multi-runtime support (Bun, Deno, Workers).”
“Remote caching and affected-only testing save enormous CI time. The project graph visualization is invaluable for large repos.”
“If you're building a GraphQL API in Node.js, Yoga with Envelop plugins is the most maintainable approach.”
“If you have a monorepo with more than 5 projects, Nx pays for itself in CI time savings on day one.”
“GraphQL servers are mature technology. Innovation has moved to the client and tooling layer.”
“Monorepos are winning. Nx and Turborepo are making them practical at any scale.”
