and I still wonder: graphql playground seems cool. is nobody using appsync with subscriptions? there is virtually no tooling/support out there...how are people developing stuff?

I think appsync is in pretty early stages so it will take some time 🙂 I think most of people here are using prisma or GCF

Yeah I wouldn't dare to use appsync for anything critical

appsync is a great service. it has a specific spot in graphql world as it has some features (auto provision from SDL to dynamobd, supports

interfaces

and

unions

)
