Overview
A Flutter package that implements an offline-first architecture for GraphQL data fetching by prioritizing local data sources before reaching out to a remote GraphQL API. This approach ensures seamless user experiences even without internet connectivity, with automatic synchronization when online. It leverages Brick's domain-driven design to manage data flow efficiently and maintain consistency across states.
Use cases
- Offline access to data in mobile apps
- Seamless sync when reconnecting to the internet
- Building resilient data layers for GraphQL APIs
- Reducing network requests through cached data
- Supporting hybrid app scenarios with intermittent connectivity
Key features
- Local-first data routing
- Automatic sync on reconnect
- Integration with GraphQL providers
- State management via Brick domains
- Efficient caching strategies
Suitable for
- Mobile apps requiring offline functionality
- Apps with unreliable network connections
- Developers using Brick for data layer architecture
- Projects leveraging GraphQL with offline needs
- Teams prioritizing user experience during connectivity loss
Considerations
- Requires understanding of Brick framework
- Additional setup for local storage configuration
- May increase initial app complexity
- Dependent on proper state handling
- Needs testing for sync conflict resolution
