So I think building something that is somewhat practical, or maybe even just for a single user app, is nice because you'll run into problems that you don't in a nice little clean edged tutorial. So building something is super important, I feel like, and I try to not break that rule.” – Eve Porcello-------------------Links:Twitter - Follow EveEve’s GraphQL NewsletterVisit Moon HighwayTwitter - Follow CassidyTwitter - Follow ZachThe Dev Morning Show (At Night) YouTube Page
