We were thinking about using GraphQL, GraphQL-yoga, and Prisma.

I'll give you a little context. It is a system to deliver medicine. Currently, the system consists of a mobile app for distributors made in react-native, an API in laravel and a dashboard to track orders, generate reports and some other stuff.

We use AWS S3, FTP, and an endpoint to receive orders. We also use WebSockets to have synchronized information between the mobile app and the dashboard. The reasons why we consider graphQL is that we currently have overfetching in the application and because graphql offers a solution through subscriptions for the parts of the system that need real-time updates.
