Hi @lukasluecke,

Thanks for your support. 🙇

The rewrite will also benefit of a renaming of the library: Frontier forms. The idea of the rewrite is to separate the library into many meaningful pieces in order to make it more powerful, this include:

• support many flavours: React, React Native, Vue.js and Angular
• support for many data schema: GraphQL and Swagger
• also, ui-kits packages for: Material UI, Bootstrap, Semantic UI

Regarding the GraphQL part, we will propose 2 ways to use it:

• runtime introspection using ApolloClient (better for development mode)
• static generation using apollo-codegen (more suitable for production)

the frontier-forms-graphql will have a peerDependencies on apollo (client + codegen).

Does this answer your question?
