Have a look.</p> </blockquote> <p>When people talk about Relay they think of it as the server-client link in the Facebook stack, but is that really all it is?</p> <p>Flux still has a place on the client because you need to manage temporary app state, right?</p> <p>I think it doesn&rsquo;t. Flux is an architecture for unidirectional data flow that separates out input from the user and the server so that it can react without getting tangled up. It does so at the high cost of tremendous verbosity and a significant drop in top down readability.</p>https://www.brysgo.com/2015/07/08/why-relay/Wed, 08 Jul 2015 12:59:33 +0000https://www.brysgo.com/2015/07/08/why-relay/<blockquote> <p><a href="https://facebook.github.io/relay/">Relay</a> is out in preview! Have a look.</p> </blockquote> <p>I want to tell you in as few words as possible why I am so excited to get my hands on <a href="http://facebook.github.io/react/blog/2015/03/19/building-the-facebook-news-feed-with-relay.html">Relay</a> and <a href="https://github.com/facebook/graphql">GraphQL</a>.</p> <p>React is widely popular because it is simple and declarative, making it very deterministic and easy to work with. React is also fully composable, making it imensly powerful with high potential for writing reusable code.</p> <p>Relay is a mirror image of React, except instead of composing beautiful views for the web and native mobile devices using JSX, you can compose data from your database for your views using graphql.</p>
