I've been using a similar service https://www.graph.cool for a while and it's been amazing. Good luck guys.

Thank’s for the support bh13731! If anybody has tried both Graphcool and Scaphold I would love to se an objective comparison between the two services.
The UI of graph.cool is a bit clunky.

But the generated Schema is nice if you don't use Relay.

Thanks for the support! If you have some time, would love for you to check out Scaphold as well. With the latest release of our custom logic workflows, we're feature-complete and can handle real workloads that require advanced permissioning, real-time subscriptions, performance monitoring, and more.
I liked your UI much more than the graph.cool thing.

But their generated Schema felt better to me. getUsers instead of this viewer stuff, feels much cleaner.

Hey, so the reason for the viewer is due to the Relay spec. It's a standard that was developed at facebook that provides some best practices in terms of schema design but I understand liking the simpler schema especially if you use Apollo and not Relay. We've thought of providing a non-relay schema for this reason as well but have yet to get around to it. Thanks for the feedback.
