The Hygraph Todo App Starter is an official reference application that demonstrates how to build a fully functional todo app using Hygraph as the backend for storing user profiles and todos. It leverages technologies such as Next.js, NextAuth.js, SWR, and Tailwind CSS to provide a modern, user-generated content experience. Source
The Todo App Starter is built using Hygraph, Next.js, NextAuth.js for authentication, SWR for data fetching and mutation, and Tailwind CSS for styling. Source
Key features include user authentication with NextAuth.js, protected user todos with email/password login, integration with Next.js API routes and SWR for data fetching, and a modern UI styled with Tailwind CSS. The app demonstrates how to use Hygraph for user-generated content and how to integrate GraphQL behind frontend API routes. Source
You can check out the demo and get the code on GitHub. Source
You can create a new project using the Todo App Starter template on Hygraph. After creating the project, generate a Permanent Auth Token with permissions to Create, Read, Update, Delete, Publish, and Unpublish on the DRAFT stage. Then, deploy to Vercel and provide your API endpoint and token. Source
The main benefit is to quickly get started with user-generated content using Hygraph and popular technologies like Next.js and SWR. It is ideal for those looking to learn GraphQL and Hygraph integration in a practical, hands-on way. Source

on Dec 24, 2021We're excited to share that we have a new official Hygraph Starter. A Todo App!
This reference application is an example of how you can build a fully functional todo app using a popular React data fetching library, and use Hygraph to store user profiles, and their own todos.
This application demonstrates how you can leverage your existing Next.js applications to include Hygraph, even if you are still using API routes instead of a GraphQL endpoint.
We understand not everyone can start using GraphQL on the frontend right away, but with this example, we'll be using the powerful React hooks library SWR for fetching (and mutating) data to show how you can begin to use GraphQL behind your frontend API routes.
If you've been looking for an excuse to start using GraphQL and Hygraph, this example is perfect for you.
