Deployment: Graphcool handles the backend as a service. Suggestions on where to host the front end for React/Apollo? I need to know more about how to deploy the front end also. Ok, I’m looking at Zeit.co which seems cool.

you know, you can assign any domain name to github repo? I've hosted one website like this, it does not have a backend and I do not pay for hosting.

Yeah, I will need more than static hosting for React/Apollo though right?
I’m not sure on what I can do with static sites. I know that one can have a static react site, but would that work with the graphcool backend?
and the Apollo
zeit says that anything with a package.json is not a static site.
Zeit Now is really cool, I got the CLI running and just typed “now” in the root of the project and it’s up and running.

if you have graphcool backend hosted somewhere else, like on api.graph.cool and you can build your website somewhere else, it could be static I guess. Website with package.json is not static until you built it, end user receives static js,html and css that communicates with some remote backend.

Ah ok, sorry I didn’t notice your comment until now.
