A keyword manager application using GraphQL and React

This repo follows a monorepo structure. Doing yarn install at the root level (inside graphql-keyword-manager folder itself) will install all the dependencies for client and server.

cd modules/server and npm start will run the GraphQL server on localhost:4001 Prisma instance is already deployed on the demo server offered by Prisma

cd modules/client and npm start starts the client webpack server on localhost:3000

Earlier I thought of using apollo-server as the graphql server and sqlite as a data source. But setting up sqlite and using serialize proved cumbersome. Instead, I have used graphql-yoga as the graphql server and prisma for storing and managing the data. Prisma proves to be a much better, easier and neater option to set up a database and perform operations using it's easy, fluent api.

This app uses the datamuse REST api as a data source to fetch similar words to a given word. It then stores these words in the database used by prisma. All the CRUD operations are performed on this data. The frontend uses apollo-client to query the graphql server.
