GraphQL is a web API, so in terms of layers, it doesn't remove anything. You still have to build an API server and an API client.

Yup so, if not a monolithic architecture and not API driven, how does it transport data? Thats what I was asking for. The benefits on using this are not clear to me as you can phisically or logically separate or join some layers but at the end you'll need to code them on a manner or another anyway. Doesn't it?

Obviously, you need to code your business logic, but the communication between the layers is handled for you by Liaison. To better understand how it works, please have a look at the documentation.

Thanks! I understand what do you mean with the extra information on the docs, I'll take a try when possible, at this point I'm more used to react, preact, svelte... but it could be fine to test. I've no much time those days but I'll let it pinned :)

Have you build some Apps with that?

Liaison provides a React integration.

Here are some examples of simple apps:

I build real apps for a customer, but they are not publicly available.
