Scaling frontend app teams using Relay

What's this blog post about?

Scaling frontend applications and teams can be achieved by factoring the frontend into multiple components owned by independent specialized teams. This reduces coupling between components and ensures clearly specified interfaces between them. Modern technologies like Relay and backend-for-frontend (BFF) can help scale out frontend applications. By using GraphQL, a centralized cache store, and batching network requests, developers can improve performance and reduce redundancy in data fetching and state management. Relay is designed to work with any existing GraphQL API and can be incrementally adopted for an easy migration path.
