Why should I use apollo client over something like generated prisma client?

12/24/2018, 6:12 PM@Nick Thanks for the answer. I don't think Gatsby.js is something that i'm looking for.
Still a bit unclear on why apollo client vs generated prisma client for a react frontend. If anyone could provide clarification, I'd appreciate it 🙂
