Next.js example with graphql-react
graphql-react
is a GraphQL client for React using modern context and hooks APIs that is lightweight (< 3 KB size limited) but powerful; the first Relay and Apollo alternative with server side rendering.
Deploy the example using Vercel:
Execute create-next-app
with npm or Yarn to bootstrap the example:
npx create-next-app --example with-graphql-react with-graphql-react-app
# or
yarn create next-app --example with-graphql-react with-graphql-react-app
Deploy it to the cloud with Vercel (Documentation).
