REST to GraphQL Transition

Title Idea: Transitioning from REST to GraphQL

Idea: We've heard about GraphQL quite a bit. We know that there are problems with REST and GraphQL solves many of those problems. But now we have a new problem: Transitioning from REST to GraphQL. Let's talk about what it takes to do that well and how services need to adapt to this new way of thinking about data access.

Potential guest(s): @leebyron, @schrockn

If you haven't heard of JavaScript Air before, it's a live broadcast podcast all about JavaScript. Shows happen every Wednesday at 12:00 Central Time. For more information about being a guest, see this Google Doc.

If you've been listed as a potential guest above, please comment on this issue about whether you're interested in coming on to talk about the subject and your availability (or unavailability) for the next few available slots. Thanks!

This idea was originally mentioned in #20 by @Norm-, I like the idea a lot and think it deserves its own episode. Feel free to suggest anyone else you think might be able to contribute to this conversation!

I'm happy to participate

Awesome! How about you @schrockn? Loved your React Rally talk, I think it'd be great to have you on the show on this topic specifically. That talk addressed subject a bit. What do you think?

Also, for both of you, what's your availability like for the available slots in the schedule?

[schrockn-zz]

I'm definitely interested. I'd be available for most dates starting in April.

[kentcdodds]

How about April 6th?

@leebyron and @schrockn, here's the schedule. Which of these dates work well for you?

• 2016-03-30
• 2016-04-14
• 2016-04-20

4/14 works for me, the other two days conflict with travel.

[kentcdodds]

Sounds great. Will that work alright for you too @schrockn?

[schrockn-zz]

4/14 should work for me sounds great!

[kentcdodds]

Oh, whoops. Not sure how that happened. That should be 4/13 actually. Does that still work for both of you?

[leebyron]

Yep, still good 

[kentcdodds]

Ping @schrockn, I'm going to assume (read: hope) that you can make it on the 13th (sorry about the mixup). I'll put it on the site that way. If that doesn't work, please let me know and we can work something out :-) Really looking forward to this show!
