This is what we have been working on since the Netlify acquisition https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29253069. Still early days and in beta, but excited to see all the DX pieces coming together bit by bit!
When we did our original Launch HN (back in summer 2018! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17602951) this was one of the primary use-cases we had in mind. GraphQL provides such a rich layer for API tooling, but bringing it all together from a developer's point of view can be pretty challenging. Hopefully this spin on it (and the built-in integrations we're rolling out for specific frameworks) should make it significantly easier.
Lots of plans (a pure vscode workflow is high on my personal wishlist), but it's time to share the current state of things with all of you folks!
