One of the creators of Launchpad here, happy to answer any questions! If you're looking for some examples to get started with, you can find those here: https://github.com/apollographql/awesome-launchpad

Please add your own if you build something cool!


Thank you for the solid work!

I didn't totally get the capabilities at first glance but the combination of the announcement post, the GitHub repo and the comprehensive samples really helped.

Being able to run these and use secrets is HUGE. Being able to get a url to point a client at is probably my favorite feature. You can prototype something without ever worrying about localhost or throwaway deployments.


Probably best to link to the blog announcement, https://dev-blog.apollodata.com/introducing-launchpad-the-gr... , to give context of what this is about, instead of directly into the launchpad UI.


Yep! Someone else posted it so didn't get to make that call :) I think we learned we need to make the UI itself have a mini tutorial.


Awesome–it's fast and I like the autocomplete and the auto-npm package download.

I might be hooking graphql/apollo up to some strange data sources like CSVs to help import my data in the right shape, so this and the examples are going to be very handy. Thanks for making this!
