This kind of stuff couldn't happen soon enough. REST is so arbitrary and less than useful for building UIs. It's just bad.

I've got Relay talking to a GraphQL service built in graphql-java which then talks to a gRPC service layer. The gRPC service layer is a great fit for GraphQL. Some type safety all around, but there could always be more. And there could always be less JSON. Please, no more JSON. The only thing it's good for is debug logging.
