How does prisma relate to apollo server? Can I use an apollo client implementation ootb with prisma?

Prisma is a GraphQL Engine that Graphcool Framework runs on. You can use Prisma with Apollo and/or Relay.

Thanks @iamclaytonray! Now to get to understanding what apollo is more 🙂

If you’re into TypeScript, I’d recommend not using TS for learning Apollo. I almost always recommend TS but Apollo has some really weird bugs I’ve encountered
Some may be fixed but 💁

Prisma can be used with a GraphQL Server in front. You can choose Apollo Server, or GraphQL Yoga, that both use express under the hood. Apollo Server is separate from Apollo Client. You can use Apollo Client with whatever GraphQL server.
